Poor prognosis of heart failure patients with in‐hospital worsening renal function and elevated BNP at discharge

ESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aims Our purpose was to investigate the association between the B‐type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level at discharge, the occurrence of worsening renal function (WRF), and long‐term outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF).
