RANDOMIZED TRIAL OF HIGH DOSE FUROSEMIDE-HYPERTONIC SALINE IN ACUTE DECOMPENSATED HEART FAILURE WITH ADVANCED RENAL DISEASE

Randomized trials have suggested a benefit of high dose furosemide-hypertonic saline infusion (F-HSS) compared to furosemide IV bolus infusion (F-IVB) in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) with preserved renal function. Creatinine (CR) >2mg/dL or BUN >60mg/dL led to exclusion from published
