Chronic Heart Failure
When Should You be Worried?

Assistance Program
University Hospitals/Case Medical Center
Heart Failure
Progressive, incurable, and ultimately fatal
• Stage A At high risk for HF but no
structural heart disease
• Stage B Structural heart disease but
w/o signs or symptoms of HF
• Stage C Structural heart disease with
prior or current symptoms
• Stage D Refractory HF requiring
specialized interventions
Hunt et al., Circulation 2001;104:2996
• HTN, DM, CAD,
cardiotoxins
• LVH, LVSD, MI, asx
valve dz
• Sx LVSD or asx on Tx
• Recurrent hosp, need
for Tx/VAD
Heart Failure is Increasing

Patient can’t go home
Diuretic doses are often decreased
ACE inhibitors/ARBs are often discontinued
Other medications are renally dosed
Inotropes may be initiated
PA catheter may be placed
Foley catheter may be re-placed
Cardiac US may be ordered
Renal US may be ordered (and is rarely helpful)

Diuretics and arrhythmic death?
Cooper HA, et al. Circulation 1999;100:1311-1315
Diuretic Resistance
“a clinical state in which diuretic response is diminished or lost
before the therapeutic goal of relief from edema has been reached”
“Braking Phenomenon”
A decrease in response to a diuretic
after the first dose
Mechanisms
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
Poor oral bioavailability
Tubular hypertrophy to compensate for salt loss
Renal insufficiency
Neurohormonal mechanisms
Reduced renal blood flow
Brater DC. N Engl J Med. 1998;339:387
When the Diuretics Don’t Work….
•
•
•
•
•
Restrict daily fluid intake (1.0-1.5 L)
Aggressive restriction of daily salt intake (≤2 g)
Stop NSAIDs
Decrease beta blockade
Give PO short-acting loop diuretic in several divided
(and increasing) doses, bolus, or continuous IV administration
• ?Nesiritide
• Use sequential nephron blockade by adding to loop diuretic
– thiazide diuretic
– Aldosterone antagonist
– short-term acetazolamide

Decompensated HF
No Standard of Care
• Wide variability in clinical practice
• Few randomized controlled trials
• Guidelines focus on:
– stable outpatients
– systolic (“low EF”) HF
• Intravenous versus oral agents
• Unclear endpoints to hospitalization
• What is appropriate post-discharge care?
What are the options?
•
•
•
•
•
•
Hemodynamic guided management
Vasopression antagonists (“Vaptans”)
Adenosine antagonists
Natriuretic peptides

• 24 pts with Class IV HF
– >5 kg weight gain
– oliguria
• Single UF session in CCU

– No hypotension

CHF Solutions
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Ultrafiltration, not dialysis
Two Peripheral IVs (CL preferred)
100-500 ml/hr fluid removal over 24 hrs
Extracorporeal blood volume ~ 40 ml
Little hemodynamic effect
Systemic anticoagulation suggested
Limited need for nursing support
Minimal electrolyte shifts (isotonic filtrate)
Greater total body Na removal than
diuretics for given volume
The UNLOAD Trial

Efficacy
• Weight loss at 48 hours after randomization
• Dyspnea score at 48 hours after randomization

Safety
• Changes in serum blood urea nitrogen,
creatinine, and electrolytes at 8, 24, 48 and 72
hours after randomization, discharge, 10, 30 and
90 days
• Episodes of hypotension during the first 48
hours after randomization
The UNLOAD Trial
• Ultrafiltration arm
• Ultrafiltration rate ≤ 500 cc/hour
• Duration/rate of fluid removal decided by treating
physicians
• IV diuretics prohibited during ultrafiltration
• Standard Care arm
• IV diuretics as bolus or continuous infusions
• IV doses ≥ 2 times daily PO dose for the first 48
hours after randomization
