Fractional excretion of sodium predicts worsening renal function in acute decompensated heart failure

BACKGROUND: Renal impairment (RI), defined as an increase in creatinine level of greater than 26.5 mmol/L, develops in more than 30% of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) patients. Fractional excretion of sodium (FeNa) reflects sodium handling by the kidneys during diuresis. AIM: To study the...
