HYPONATREMIA IS ASSOCIATED WITH DIURETIC RESISTANCE AND A HIGHER INCIDENCE OF WORSENING RENAL FUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE DECOMPENSATED HEART FAILURE

Although hyponatremia has prognostic implications in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), its influence on patient clinical course, including response to diuretics and renal function, has not been reported. Our objective was to evaluate the incidence of hyponatremia in ADHF and its association
