Clinical Trial Summary

Loop diuretics are the main therapy for decongestion of patients with advanced acute heart failure. However, these patients often develop diuretic-resistance or even diuretic-refractoriness. In order to overcome such resistance to diuretic, the clinician can increase the dose of furosemide, or change the way of administration (continuous infusion versus boluses) or associate a different class of diuretics (thiazide diuretics, K+-sparing diuretics) up to the addition of low doses of inotropic agents to improve renal perfusion. At the present time there is no evidence in literature in advanced acute heart failure patients about the superiority of the treatment with furosemide in continuous infusion or in intermittent boluses. The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of furosemide in boluses versus continuous infusion in advanced acute heart failure.
