Spot urine sodium‐to‐creatinine ratio surpasses sodium in identifying poor diuretic response in acute heart failure [PDF]
ESC Heart FailureAims We aim to identify the most accurate marker for early prediction of poor diuretic response in acute heart failure (AHF) patients with signs of congestion requiring intravenous diuretic treatment.

Effects of early diuretic response to carperitide in acute decompensated heart failure treatment: A single-center retrospective study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 BACKGROUND:Diuretic response is a strong predictor of outcome for admitted patients of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). However, little is known about the effects of early diuretic response to carperitide.

Improving Diuretic Response in Heart Failure by Implementing a Patient-Tailored Variability and Chronotherapy-Guided Algorithm [PDF]
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021 Heart failure is a major public health problem, which is associated with significant mortality, morbidity, and healthcare expenditures. A substantial amount of the morbidity is attributed to volume overload, for which loop diuretics are a mandatory ...

Point-of-Care, Ultraportable Echocardiography Predicts Diuretic Response in Patients Admitted with Acute Decompensated Heart Failure [PDF]
Clinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology, 2016 Background Routine management of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) requires careful attentiveness to fluid status and diuretic treatment efficacy.

Neuroendocrine hormone status and diuretic response to atrial natriuretic peptide in patients with acute heart failure [PDF]
ESC Heart Failure, 2022 Aims Given the various effects of sacubitril/valsartan in heart failure, a deeper understanding of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) actions is warranted. Natriuresis is a fundamental action of ANP in acute heart failure (AHF), whereas the diuretic effect

Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Activation and Diuretic Response in Ambulatory Patients With Heart FailurePlain-Language Summary [PDF]
Kidney Medicine, 2022 Rationale & Objective: Heart failure treatment relies on loop diuretics to induce natriuresis and decongestion, but the therapy is often limited by diuretic resistance.

Urine chloride trajectory and relationship with diuretic response in acute heart failure [PDF]
ESC Heart FailureAims Sodium excretion is a well‐defined marker used to assess diuretic response in acute heart failure (AHF). Despite a strong pathophysiological background, the role of urine chloride excretion has not been described and established yet.

Therapeutic approach in heart failure with poor diuretic response: peripheral ultrafiltration vs. conventional treatment [PDF]
ESC Heart Failure, 2023 Aims Patients with heart failure (HF) admitted for decompensation often require high doses of intravenous diuretics. This study aims to analyse whether the use of peripheral ultrafiltration (UF) in patients hospitalized for acute HF with systemic ...

Spanish Journal of Medicine, 2023 Introduction: Renal dysfunction and heart failure (HF) are closely intermingled, even though their pathophysiology is not fully understood. Recently, abdominal congestion, through an increase of intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), has been proposed as a ...

External validation of the natriuretic response prediction equation to discriminate diuretic response in heart failure [PDF]
ESC Heart FailureAims Incomplete decongestion due to lack of titration of diuretics to effective doses is a common reason for readmission in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).
