| Core Tip |
Hypertonic saline solution (HSS) has been proposed in recent years as a potential therapy to facilitate diuresis in patients with decompensated heart failure and to overcome diuretic resistance. This study supports the effectiveness of HSS + F on weight loss in patients with acute decompensated heart failure and a high burden of comorbidities, despite a proportion of patients having preserved ejection fraction, right heart failure and advanced renal failure. The administration of small intravenous boluses of HSS in conjunction with intravenous furosemide can be a feasible and inexpensive therapeutic option which can prevent the use of costlier and more invasive treatments such as ultrafiltration, hemodialysis and inotropic infusion. |
