Renal neurohormonal regulation in heart failure decompensation.
Decompensation in heart failure occurs when the heart fails to balance venous return with cardiac output, leading to fluid congestion and contributing to mortality. Decompensated heart failure can cause acute kidney injury (AKI), which further increases mortality. Heart failure activates signaling systems that are deleterious to kidneys such as renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA), renin-ang...
متن کاملOptiVol fluid index predicts acute decompensation of heart failure with a high rate of unexplained events
BACKGROUND Intrathoracic impedance monitoring has emerged as a promising new technique for the detection of impending heart failure (HF). Although false positive episodes have been reported in case reports and clinical trials, the efficacy and false positive rate in real-world practice remain unclear. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to investigate the utility and reliability of the OptiVol...
متن کاملPrognostic factors of mid-term clinical outcome in congestive heart failure patients discharged after acute decompensation
INTRODUCTION Risk stratification in congestive heart failure (CHF) patients is based on a variety of clinical and laboratory variables. We analysed renal function, BNP, water composition, echocardiographic and functional determinations in predicting mid-term outcome in CHF patients discharged after decompensation. MATERIAL AND METHODS All subjects with NYHA class II-IV were enrolled at hospit...
متن کاملRisks and Benefits of Risk Prediction in Acute Heart Failure.
SEE PAGE 737 D espite the remarkable advances in the treatment of acute and chronic heart failure (HF), prognosis assessment remains an ongoing challenge. Multiple cardiovascular diseases lead to the development of HF. Treatment options for these diseases are evolving, which leads to greater numbers of patients reaching the final state of HF at a later age with a greater comorbidity burden. The...
متن کاملAcute heart failure facts and numbers: acute heart failure populations
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a life-threatening emergency, which largely profits from early diagnosis and treatment. The prevalence of AHF is difficult to assess, estimates range between 1 and 12% in the general population. Despite recent therapeutic advances, in-hospital mortality is high with estimates varying from 4 and 18% in different registries. Due to large differences in AHF definitions...
