[Prognostic significance of creatinine clearance rate in patients with heart failure and normal serum creatinine].
Kidney failure is an important prognostic factor in patients with heart failure. Renal function is usually evaluated by measuring the serum creatinine level. However, a normal creatinine level can mask established kidney failure. We investigated the prognostic significance of the estimated creatinine clearance rate (Cockcroft formula) in 235 patients with heart failure and a normal serum creati...
متن کاملPrognostic Significance of Creatinine Clearance in Patients With Heart Failure and Normal Serum Creatinine
La insuficiencia renal es un importante factor pronóstico en pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca. Para valorar la función renal se suelen utilizar las cifras de creatinina sérica. Sin embargo, cifras normales pueden ocultar una insuficiencia renal establecida. Hemos evaluado el significado pronóstico del aclaramiento de creatinina estimado (Cockcroft) en 235 pacientes con insuficiencia cardiac...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of serum creatinine and uric acid in older Chinese patients with isolated systolic hypertension.
UNLABELLED We examined the relation of serum creatinine and uric acid to mortality and cardiovascular disease in older (aged >/=60 years) Chinese patients with isolated systolic hypertension (systolic/diastolic blood pressure >/=160/<95 mm Hg). We used Cox regression to correlate outcome with baseline serum creatinine and uric acid measured in 1880 and 1873, respectively, of the 2394 patients e...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of Serum Creatinine and Effect of Treatment of Hypertension on Renal Function
The Hypertension Detection and Follow-up Program followed up 10,940 persons for 5 years in a community-based, randomized, controlled trial of treatment for hypertension. Participants were randomized to one of two treatment groups, stepped care and referred care. The primary end point of the study was all-cause mortality, with morbid events involving the heart, brain, and kidney as secondary end...
متن کاملNephrotoxicity of vancomycin in patients with normal serum creatinine.
Chronic renal disease is frequent in the general population. In the case of epidemia or pandemia of avian influenza A (H5N1), the two neuraminidase inhibitors, oseltamivir and zanamivir will therefore be used in patients with renal impairment. Although zanamivir does not necessitate any adjustment of its dosage in patients with renal failure, because it is not absorbed after oral inhalation, os...
