Like most other causes of hyponatremia, heart failure (with either reduced or preserved ejection fraction) impairs the ability to excrete ingested water by increasing antidiuretic hormone levels
In 1966, Weinstein & Solis-Gil [ 1] reported that the use of Hyponatremia is a very common electrolyte abnormality, associated with poor short- and long-term outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF)
[] HF accounts for a heavy burden of hospitalizations with over 800,000 hospital discharges
Beta blockers lower the workload on your heart, help your heart pump better, help manage your blood pressure, lower your risk of a heart attack, help prevent stress hormones from making your heart failure worse and keep your heart rhythm normal
The level of digoxin in the body must be monitored using a blood test
It is used to assess exercise capacity, identify exercise-induced arrhythmias, and determine if there are any underlying coronary artery blockages contributing to heart failure symptoms
The pragmatic, open label study
Unlike furosemide and bumetanide, the bioavailability of torsemide remains unchanged with food intake [16, 17]
This makes it easier for your heart to pump
In addition, there is a suggestion that torsemide has a vasodilatory effect and a possible Use of intravenous furosemide rather than oral administration in acute decompensated congestive cardiac failure is universally recommended in international guidelines
23 Due to chronic maladaptive neurohormonal activation, HF progresses gradually and then some inciting event, such as an infection or poor adherence to medical treatment, causes sudden AHF needing hospitalisation
