Abstract

The interaction between acute heart failure (AHF) and renal dysfunction is complex. Several studies have evaluated the prognostic value of this syndrome. The aim of this systematic review, which includes non-selected samples, was to investigate the impact of different renal function variables on the AHF prognosis. The categories included in the studies reviewed included: creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), the BUN/creatinine quotient, chronic kidney disease, the formula to estimate the glomerular filtration rate, criteria of acute renal injury and new biomarkers of renal damage such as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL and cystatin c). The basal alterations of the renal function, as well as the acute alterations, transient or not, are related to a worse prognosis in AHF, it is therefore necessary to always have baseline, acute and evolutive renal function parameters.

Resumen

La insuficiencia cardiaca aguda (ICA) y la disfunción renal son 2entidades para cuya compleja interacción se ha explorado su valor pronóstico. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática de trabajos, que parte de muestras no seleccionadas, fue investigar el impacto que tienen diversas variables de función renal sobre el pronóstico de la ICA. La creatinina, el nitrógeno ureico (BUN), el cociente BUN/creatinina, la enfermedad renal crónica, la fórmula para estimar la tasa de filtrado glomerular, los criterios de lesión renal aguda y los nuevos biomarcadores de daño renal (NGAL y la cistatina C) son las categorías en que se han incluido los trabajos revisados. Las alteraciones basales, así como las alteraciones agudas, transitorias o no, de la función renal se relacionan con un peor pronóstico en la ICA. Es, por lo tanto, necesario tener siempre parámetros de función renal basales, del episodio agudo y evolutivos.
