Proper Fluid Therapy, Vasopressors, and Inotropic - Dr. Vidya

1) Acute heart failure (AHF) is a life-threatening condition requiring urgent evaluation and treatment, with in-hospital mortality ranging from 4-10% and 1-year mortality up to 30-45%. 2) AHF management involves assessing congestion, implementing initial diuretic and vasodilator therapy, and considering devices or procedures if needed. 3) Key treatment goals include relieving symptoms, reducing congestion, preserving organ function, and preventing readmissions through optimized medical therapy and coordinated transition of care.

VIDYA GILANG REJEKI, MD
Importance of Acute Heart Failure (AHF)

In-hospital mortality ranges from 4% to 10%.


Post-discharge 1-year mortality can be 25-30% with up to more than
45% deaths or readmission rates.
Definition of Heart Failure
Clinical syndrome consisting of cardinal symptoms (e.g.
breathlessness, ankle swelling, and fatigue) that may be
accompanied by signs (e.g. elevated jugular venous
pressure, pulmonary crackles, and peripheral oedema).
It is due to a structural and/or functional abnormality of
the heart that results in elevated intracardiac pressures
and/or inadequate cardiac output at rest and/or during
exercise.

Definition

AHF refers to rapid onset or worsening of symptoms and/or signs of heart


failure
• Life-threatening medical condition requiring urgent evaluation and treatment, leading to
urgent hospital admission

AHF may present as:


A first occurrence (de novo)
A consequences of acute decompensated of chronic HF
Classification
CAD, old MI, FH,
HT,DM, CKD

• Assessment of Congestion: Clinical
and Technical Evaluation
• Early symptoms of congestion
typically occur without significant
weight gain, suggesting fluid
redistribution rather than
hypervolemia

pleural line, extend to the bottom of the screen without
fading, and move synchronously with lung sliding

Always assess hemodynamic profile in patient with AHF

Assess any respiratory compromised and any hypoperfusion

Whether Vascular type vs Cardiac type predominates is


important to decide further management therapy

Diuretic response, especially at early phase is crucial to notes for


optimal decongestion therapy

Fluid challenge should be initiated with close monitoring
