Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of diuretics combined with the new class volume-removing drugs nesiritide and tolvaptan on refractory heart failure (RHF).Methods We collected 78 patients with RHF from cardiovascular ICU in our hos-pital,and patients were divided into combined volume-removing drugs treatment group (CVR group)and traditional diuretics com-bined with inotropic treatment group (control group).We observed the differences in the heart failure symptoms control rate and the average hospitalization days between the two groups.The difference in average urine volume and weight loss during hospitaliza-tion was observed.Results The heart failure symptoms were controlled and successful discharge in 89.7% of patients in CVR group,which was better than that in control group(71.8%).The corresponding rates of death or abandonment was decreased sig-nificantly in CVR group,and the average number of hospitalization days in CVR group was significantly shorter than that in control group(P <0.05).Meanwhile,the average daily urine volume and the weight loss decreased significantly in CVR group than those in control group(P <0.05).Conclusion The therapy strategy of combined volume-removing drugs can significantly improve the vol-ume removing and control rate of heart failure symptoms.
