Diureticdosing•  DOSE trial •  308 patients with acute decompensated heart failure •  Randomized to furosemide IV bolus q12 hours vs. infusion and at either low

dose (equivalent to home oral dose) vs. high dose (2.5x home oral dose) •  No difference in the groups

Felker NEJM 2011

Take home message: diuretic dosing is flexible

Ultrafiltration•  CARRESS-HF trial •  188 patients with acute decompensated heart failure, AKI and

persistent congestion •  Stepped pharmacologic therapy (IV diuretics) vs. ultrafiltration •  No difference in weight loss between groups •  Higher rate of adverse events and greater increase in Cr in UF group

Bart NEJM 2012

Take home message: diuresis is likely a safer strategy (vs. UF)

Whatabout“contrastnephropathy?”

•  6,000,000 hospitalized pts; no AKI on admit, LOS < 10 d

•  Evaluated for hospital-acquired AKI Contrast No Contrast 5.5% 5.6% (unadjusted)

5.6% 5.1% (adjusted)

Conclusions: “…our analyses suggest that the incremental risk of AKI that can be attributed to radiocontrast is modest at worst, and almost certainly overestimated by patients, physicians, surgeons, radiologists, and other decision-makers.”
