Prediction of diuretic response to tolvaptan by a simple, readily available spot urine Na/K ratio. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
BACKGROUND:Tolvaptan is vasopressin type 2 receptor antagonist that inhibits water reabsorption. It is used in combination with standard diuretics to treat ascites unresponsive to standard diuretic therapy or hyponatremia because of liver cirrhosis. This

Effects of Metolazone Administration on Congestion, Diuretic Response and Renal Function in Patients with Advanced Heart Failure. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Med, 2021
Background: Advanced heart failure (HF) is a condition often requiring elevated doses of loop diuretics. Therefore, these patients often experience poor diuretic response. Both conditions have a detrimental impact on prognosis and hospitalization.

Doppler study of portal vein and renal venous velocity predict the appropriate fluid response to diuretic in ICU: a prospective observational echocardiographic evaluation

open access: yesCritical Care, 2022
Background Fluid overload and venous congestion are associated with morbi-mortality in the ICU (intensive care unit). Administration of diuretics to correct the fluid balance is common, although there is no strong relationship between the consequent ...

Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Activation and Diuretic Response in Ambulatory Patients With Heart FailurePlain-Language Summary [PDF]

open access: yesKidney 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.

Serum chloride and serum sodium derangements in children on prolonged furosemide therapy and their effect on diuretic response [PDF]

open access: diamondEgyptian Pediatric Association Gazette, 2022
Background Electrolyte disturbances are not uncommon in patients on chronic furosemide therapy. We hypothesized that serum chloride (Cl) and serum sodium (Na) abnormalities may occur in children on prolonged furosemide therapy affecting the diuretic ...

Evaluation of Body Position Association with Diuretic Response and Neurohormonal Activation in Patients with Acutely Decompensated Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background/Objectives: Hemodynamic and neurohormonal factors, including renal perfusion and venous pressure, may affect diuretic response, which may be modulated by body position.

Loop Diuretic Administration in Patients with Acute Heart Failure and Reduced Systolic Function: Effects of Different Intravenous Diuretic Doses and Diuretic Response Measurements. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Med, 2019
Background: Despite the fact that loop diuretics are a landmark in acute heart failure (AHF) treatment, few trials exist that evaluate whether the duration and timing of their administration and drug amount affect outcome.

Early treatment with tolvaptan improves diuretic response in acute heart failure with renal dysfunction. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Res Cardiol, 2017
BackgroundPoor response to diuretics is associated with worse prognosis in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). We hypothesized that treatment with tolvaptan improves diuretic response in patients with AHF.MethodsWe performed a secondary analysis of ...

Impact of chronic kidney disease on the diuretic response of tolvaptan in acute decompensated heart failure. [PDF]

open access: yesESC Heart Fail, 2017
This study investigated the relationship between the initial diuretic response to tolvaptan and clinical predictors for tolvaptan responders in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).

Natriuresis-guided diuretic therapy in acute heart failure: a pragmatic randomized trial

open access: yesNature Medicine, 2023
In patients with acute heart failure, personalized dosing of a diuretic led to treatment intensification in the majority of patients and improved natriuresis, but had no effects on time to all-cause mortality or heart failure rehospitalization ...
