Management of hyperkalaemia in acute kidney injury in a heart failure patient with patiromer [PDF]

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aims One prevalent comorbidity of chronic heart failure (CHF) is chronic kidney disease(CKD). Hyperkalemia is associated with both CHF and CKD, which often leads to withdrawal of heart failure medications in clinical praxis. Methods and results A patient

Natriuretic Peptides in Chronic Heart Failure

open access: yesCardiac Failure Review, 2019
Normal brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal proBNP (NT-proBNP) levels are helpful in excluding chronic heart failure in the ambulatory setting, although they have been studied less well and possibly less accurately than in acute care.

Chronic heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Prescriber, 2017
The clinical diagnosis of heart failure should be confirmed by echocardiogram to determine the underlying mechanism and to measure the left ventricular ejection fraction. Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction have different treatments but are often indistinguishable clinically.
