Background: In acute heart failure (HF), low cardiac output and venous congestion are pathophysiological mechanisms that contribute to renal function impairment. This study investigated the association between advanced echocardiographic measures of right ventricular and atrial function and renal impairment in patients with acute HF. Methods and Results: A total of 377 patients hospitalized for acute HF were prospectively evaluated. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on admission was measured using the 2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration creatinine equation. Advanced echocardiographic assessment was performed on admission. Patients with eGFR < 45 mL/min/1.73 m2 were more likely to have chronic heart failure, chronic atrial fibrillation, and type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to patients with eGFR ≥ 45 mL/min/1.73 m2. Patients with lower eGFR had lower cardiac output, higher mean E/e’ ratio, larger right ventricular (RV) size, worse RV free wall longitudinal strain, more impaired right atrial (RA) reservoir strain, and more frequent severe tricuspid regurgitation. RV free wall longitudinal strain and RA reservoir strain were the only independent echocardiographic associates of low eGFR, whereas cardiac output was not. Conclusions: Impaired RV and RA longitudinal strain were independently associated with eGFR < 45 mL/min/1.73 m2 in acute HF, while reduced cardiac output was not. This suggests that RV and RA dysfunction underlying venous congestion and increased renal afterload are more important pathophysiological determinants of renal impairment in acute HF than reduced cardiac output. |
