Intravenous Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist Use in Acutely Decompensated Heart Failure with Diuretic Resistance
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intravenous mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) have been used in some centers for decades to reduce the risk of hypokalemia and boost diuresis acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF). We report well-tolerated use intravenous MRAs as a rescue procedure 3 patients admitted ADHF with important diuretic resistance. Undertaking trials evaluating effect this therapeutic strategy could represent promising avenue.

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism in acutely decompensated chronic heart failure.
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) use in acutely decompensated chronic heart failure (ADCHF) may improve congestion through diuretic effect and prevent neurohormonal activation. We aimed to evaluate the clinical effect and safety of spironolactone in ADCHF. METHODS Prospective, experimental, single-center, and single-blinded trial. Patients were treated with: s...
متن کاملUse of carperitide infusion for acutely decompensated heart failure
1] recently reported in their meta-analysis that carperitide infusion improved the renal function of cardiovascular surgical patients, and we feel that this notion could be expanded to medical patients, particularly with the use of carperitide. Although some studies have not been able to recommend the use of nesiritide in acute heart failure (HF) patients [2,3], more recent clinical trials have...
متن کاملContinuous versus bolus intermittent loop diuretic infusion in acutely decompensated heart failure: a prospective randomized trial
INTRODUCTION Intravenous loop diuretics are a cornerstone of therapy in acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF). We sought to determine if there are any differences in clinical outcomes between intravenous bolus and continuous infusion of loop diuretics. METHODS Subjects with ADHF within 12 hours of hospital admission were randomly assigned to continuous infusion or twice daily bolus thera...
متن کاملTemporal Trends and Hospital Variation in Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist Use in Veterans Discharged With Heart Failure
BACKGROUND Despite concerns about mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist therapies (MRAs) underuse and misuse in patients with heart failure, temporal and institutional variations of MRA prescription have not been reported. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied a national sample of veterans hospitalized for heart failure between 2003 and 2009 and left ventricular ejection fraction <40%. We identified...
متن کاملDiuretic strategies in patients with acute decompensated heart failure.
BACKGROUND Loop diuretics are an essential component of therapy for patients with acute decompensated heart failure, but there are few prospective data to guide their use. METHODS In a prospective, double-blind, randomized trial, we assigned 308 patients with acute decompensated heart failure to receive furosemide administered intravenously by means of either a bolus every 12 hours or continu...
