Background: Poor natriuresis has been associated with a poorer response to diuretic treatment and worse prognosis in acute heart failure. Recommendations on how when measure urinary sodium (UNa) are lacking. We aim evaluate UNa quantification after furosemide stress test (FST) capacity predict appropriate decongestion during failure hospitalization. Methods: Patients underwent an FST day-1 of admission, was measured 2 hours after, dividing patients into low or high based the sample median...
Combined pre-and post-capillary hypertension (CpcPH) is a relatively common complication of heart failure (HF) associated with poor prognosis. Currently, there no specific therapy approved for this entity. Recently, treatment beta-3 adrenergic receptor (β3AR) agonists was able to improve pulmonary hemodynamics and right ventricular (RV) performance in translational, large animal model chronic PH. The authors present the design phase II randomized clinical trial that tests benefits mirabegron...
Abstract Aims The outpatient diuretic dose is a marker of resistance and prognosis in chronic heart failure (HF). Still, the impact preadmission on efficiency (DE) acute HF not fully known. Methods results We conducted an observational prospective study. All patients admitted for treated with intravenous at least one criterion congestion admission were evaluated. Decongestion [physical examination, hemoconcentration, N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) change, lung...
osteomyelitis is a rare complication of extrapulmonary invasive aspergillosis, which usually presents as spondylodiscitis. The clinical picture paucisymptomatic and long evolution, leads to diagnostic difficulties, especially in immunosuppressed patients presenting delayed systemic host response. We report case femoral caused by
The coexistence of heart and kidney diseases, also called cardiorenal syndrome, is increasingly common, leads to a significant impact on morbidity mortality, poses diagnostic therapeutic difficulties. There risk-treatment paradox, such that patients with the highest risk are treated lesser disease-modifying medical therapies. In this document, different scientific societies propose practical approach systematically address optimize therapies related comorbidities in chronic disease beyond...
Introduction and Objectives: Dyspnea is the most common symptom among hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) but besides dyspnea questionnaires (which reflect subjective patient sensation are not fully validated in HF) there no measurable physiological variables providing objective assessment of a setting acute HF patients. Studies performed respiratory suggest that measurement electromyographic (EMG) activity muscles surface electrodes correlates well dyspnea. Our aim was to test...
In this observational and multicenter study, that included all patients who underwent a heart transplantation (HT) in Spain from 1984 to 2018, we analyzed the incidence, management, prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) after HT. Of 6,244 with HT median follow-up 8.8 years since procedure, 116 CRC cases (11.5% noncutaneous solid cancers other than lymphoma registered) were diagnosed, mainly adenocarcinomas, mean 9.3 post-HT. The incidence increased age at 56.6 per 100,000 person-years among...
The Index for Mortality Prediction After Cardiac Transplantation (IMPACT) score was derived and validated as a predictor of mortality after heart transplantation (HT). primary objective this work is to externally validate the IMPACT in contemporary Spanish cohort.Spanish Heart Transplant Registry data were used identify adult (>16 years) HT patients between January 2000 December 2015. Retransplantation, multiorgan whom at least one variables required calculate missing excluded from analysis...
Diuretic resistance (DR) is a common condition during heart failure (HF) hospitalization, and related to worse prognosis. Although the risk factors for DR HF hospitalization are widely described, we do not know whether of chronic could be predicted admission.We conducted multicenter, prospective observational study between July 2017 2019. All patients admitted acute with intravenous diuretic treatment at least one criterion congestion on admission were invited participate. Patients renal...
