Key result
Standard pharmacologic therapies for HFrEF require careful dosing and monitoring of renal function and potassium in patients with concurrent chronic kidney disease.
Why the study?
Concurrent chronic kidney disease in patients with HFrEF challenges the initiation and titration of the four standard pharmacologic therapies.
Population

May warrant enhanced monitoring with HFrEF therapies in CKD; leaves open optimal protocols for prospective trials.
This review provides practical guidance on initiating and titrating the four pillars of HFrEF therapy in patients with concurrent chronic kidney disease, emphasizing careful monitoring of renal function and electrolytes.
Arden R. Barry (2022) conducted a review in Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and chronic kidney disease. Pharmacologic therapies for HFrEF was evaluated. Standard pharmacologic therapies for HFrEF require careful dosing and monitoring of renal function and potassium in patients with concurrent chronic kidney disease.
