Acute treatment of uncompensated heart failure with 10% hypertonic saline and its subsequent effect on respiratory patterns
Uncompensated heart failure (UHF) is a leading cause of hospitalization. The available drugs to treat acute UHF include inotropes, diuretics and vasodilators. In recent years, hypertonic saline (HTS) has emerged as a new potential therapy for refractory heart failure, usually in association with high doses of diuretics. However, there have been no reports describing the use of HTS as a first-li...
متن کاملFluid overload contributing to heart failure.
BACKGROUND In advanced heart failure, the compensatory responses to reduced cardiac output, in spite of fluid retention, lead to maladaptive consequences. METHODS We performed a Medline survey for fluid overload and heart failure as well as reviewing textbook chapters. RESULTS The increased sympathetic nervous system, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and antidiuretic hormone stimulatio...
متن کاملCurrent Management of Hyponatremia in Acute Heart Failure: A Report From the Hyponatremia Registry for Patients With Euvolemic and Hypervolemic Hyponatremia (HN Registry)
BACKGROUND Hyponatremia (HN) occurs commonly in patients with acute heart failure and confers a worse prognosis. Current HN treatment varies widely, with no consensus. This study recorded treatment practices currently used for patients hospitalized with acute heart failure and HN. METHODS AND RESULTS Data were collected prospectively from 146 US sites on patients hospitalized with acute heart...
متن کاملCOMPARISON BETWEEN THE EFFECTS OF 5 PERCENT HYPERTONIC SODIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTION AND 0.9 PERCENT SODIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTION ON LEFT VENTRICUL AR CONTRACTION
Hypertonic saline solution can absorb part of the intracellular fluid volume into the extracellular space. The effects of this solution on the cardiovascular system are increased coronary flow and increased left ventricular contraction, without sympathetic system activation. This study was designed to assess the effects of hypertonic saline solution in open heart surgery and to compare it w...
متن کاملIn Vivo Evaluation of the Ameliorating Effects of Small-Volume Resuscitation with Four Different Fluids on Endotoxemia-Induced Kidney Injury
Acute kidney injury associated with renal hypoperfusion is a frequent and severe complication during sepsis. Fluid resuscitation is the main therapy. However, heart failure is usually lethal for those patients receiving large volumes of fluids. We compared the effects of small-volume resuscitation using four different treatment regimens, involving saline, hypertonic saline (HTS), hydroxyethyl s...
