Early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) is an urgent problem in acute decompensation of chronic heart failure (ADHF).
The aim was to study the features of cardiorenal syndrome in patients with acute decompensation of chronic heart failure with reduced systolic function, and assess the possibility of diagnosing acute renal injury by duplex scanning of the renal arteries. Material and Methods. The objects were 60 patients (62,0±11,1 years) with ADHF (BNP more than 500 pg/ml) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LV 27,05% [23,25; 32, 75]), NYHA FC III–IV. All patients has undergone 6-minute walk test (T6MH), transthoracic echocardiography, creatinine, urea, GFR, albumin, total protein, NT-proBNP, duplex scanning of the renal arteries with assessment of renal hemodynamics (peak systolic (Vps, cm/s), end-diastolic (Ved, cm / s) arterial blood flow velocity, the level of the index is resistive Nost RI=(Vps-Ved)/Vps). Results. AKI is determined based on changes in serum creatinine concentration or diuresis value. Patients with ADHF showed reduced levels of the terminal diastolic blood flow velocity in the renal arteries, detected by duplex scanning, and increased resistance index. Correlations between the parameters of renal hemodynamics, indicators of renal function and NT-proBNP blood concentration have been revealed. A univariate regression analysis showed that RI>0,805 is associated with an increase in risk of AKI of 5,7 times. Conclusion. Acute kidney damage develops in 48,3% of patients hospitalized with acute decompensation of chronic heart failure. Patients with a history of chronic kidney disease had a higher risk of nosocomial AKI. For early diagnosis of AKI in patients with ADHF, it is recommended in addition to creatinine level and calculating GFR to perform a duplex scanning of renal arteries to reveal reduced terminal diastolic blood flow velocity and increased resistance index.
