Triple Diuretics and Aquaretic Strategy for Acute Decompensated Heart Failure due to Volume Overload
Diuretics, including furosemide, metolazone, and spironolactone, have historically been the mainstay of therapy for acute decompensated heart failure patients. The addition of an aquaretic-like vasopressin antagonist may enhance diuresis further. However, clinical experience with this quadruple combination is lacking in the acute setting. We present two hospitalized patients with acute decompen...
متن کاملMeta-Analysis of Ultrafiltration versus Diuretics Treatment Option for Overload Volume Reduction in Patients with Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
INTRODUCTION Although diuretics are mainly used for the treatment of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), inadequate responses and complications have led to the use of extracorporeal ultrafiltration (UF) as an alternative strategy for reducing volume overloads in patients with ADHF. OBJECTIVE The aim of our study is to perform meta-analysis of the results obtained from studies on extraco...
متن کاملDiuretics and ultrafiltration in acute decompensated heart failure.
Congestion and volume overload are the hallmarks of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), and loop diuretics have historically been the cornerstone of treatment. The demonstrated efficacy of loop diuretics in managing congestion is balanced by the recognized limitations of diuretic resistance, neurohormonal activation, and worsening renal function. However, the recently published DOSE (Diur...
متن کاملBeyond diuretics: management of volume overload in acute heart failure syndromes.
Diuretics are an established foundation of therapy for patients with chronic heart failure (HF) as well as for those hospitalized for treatment of acute HF syndromes. Despite the accepted use of diuretics in acute HF syndromes, treatment patterns with diuretics vary widely, and there are no data from randomized studies on the benefit of diuretics on morbidity or mortality in patients hospitaliz...

Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is the most common cause of hospital admission in patients 65 years, accounting for 1 million hospitalizations, 6 million hospital days, and $12 billion in costs annually in the United States alone.1,2 The prognosis of patients admitted with ADHF is dismal, with rates of rehospitalization or death approaching 50% within 6 months.3,4 Despite these alarmin...
