Acute heart failure [PDF]

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2020
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a syndrome defined as the new onset (de novo heart failure (HF)) or worsening (acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF)) of symptoms and signs of HF, mostly related to systemic congestion. In the presence of an underlying structural or functional cardiac dysfunction (whether chronic in ADHF or undiagnosed in de novo HF ...

SGLT2-is in Acute Heart Failure. [PDF]

J Clin Med
Despite the wealth of evidence in favour of SGLT2 inhibitor use in patients with chronic heart failure, their role in the very early stages of heart failure is still unclear. While the latest update of the European Society of Cardiology guidelines on heart failure advocates the use SGLT2 inhibitors in the acute phases of heart failure based on the ...

Ultrafiltration in Acute Heart Failure

Cardiac Failure Review, 2019
Congestion is the predominant cause of more than 1 million annual heart failure hospitalisations and recurrent fluid overload predicts poor outcomes. Unresolved congestion trumps serum creatinine increases in predicting adverse heart failure outcomes. No

Inflammation in acute heart failure

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Acute heart failure (AHF) represents a common clinical scenario that requires prompt evaluation and therapy and that is characterized by a high risk of mortality or subsequent rehospitalizations. The pathophysiology leading to AHF decompensation is still

Heart Failure with Preserved Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2015
Background: The prevalence and clinical outcomes of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction after acute myocardial infarction have not been well elucidated. Objective: To analyze the prevalence of heart failure with preserved left

Pheochromocytoma with acute heart failure as a complication—emphasis on the etiology of acute heart failure for diagnosis and treatment: a case report [PDF]

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background The primary causes of heart failure include myocardial damage and structural abnormalities. In addition to cardiovascular disease, noncardiovascular disease can also lead to heart failure.

Acute Heart Failure Facts and Numbers: Acute Heart Failure Populations [PDF]

ESC Heart Failure, 2016
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) is a life-threatening emergency, which largely profits from early diagnosis and treatment. The prevalence of AHF is difficult to assess, estimates range between 1 and 12% in the general population. Despite recent therapeutic advances, in-hospital mortality is high with estimates varying from 4 and 18%

Acute Heart Failure Management [PDF]

Korean Circulation Journal, 2018
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a life-threatening medical condition, where urgent diagnostic and treatment methods are of key importance. However, there are few evidence-based treatment methods. Interestingly, despite relatively similar ways of management of AHF throughout the globe, mid-term outcome in East Asia, including South Korea is more favorable ...

Decongestion in Acute Heart Failure [PDF]

European Journal of Heart Failure, 2014
Abstract Congestion is a major reason for hospitalization in acute heart failure (HF). Therapeutic strategies to manage congestion include diuretics, vasodilators, ultrafiltration, vasopressin antagonists, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and potentially also novel therapies such as gut sequesterants and serelaxin.

Serial heart rate measurement and mortality after acute heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aim Heart failure (HF) poses a unique medical burden of high morbidity and mortality. Elevated resting heart rate (HR) is associated with worse outcomes in chronic HF, but little is known about the prognostic impact of serial HR measurement during ...
