| Abstrakt: | The standard of care of treatment for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) complicated by cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) is diuretics. This case report is an example of how the institution of ultrafiltration early in the course of ADHF complicated by CRS for volume removal can be an alternative approach rather than escalation of the diuretic regimen when the initial diuretic regimen is ineffective and, in turn, yielding a good clinical course. Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist. (Copyright © 2022, Mandal et al.) |
