Acute Kidney Injury, Heart Failure
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is aim to study the changes of serum creatinine levels at 72 hours after admission in patients with acute heart failure who has diuretic resistance compared to those who do not have diuretic resistance from furosemide stress test
Detailed description
This study is an observational prospective study to demonstrate a prognosis of acute heart failure patients who have diuretic resistance compared to those who do not have diuretic resistance from furosemide stress test. The primary outcome is changes of serum creatinine levels at 72 hours compared to baseline values at the time of admission.
Interventions
Furosemide stress test is performed by administration of intravenous furosemide 1 mg/kg in patients who do not receive oral furosemide before and 1.5 mg/kg patients who have never received oral furosemide.
