RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) developed the Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock Performance Measure bundle (SEP-1) metric to improve sepsis care, but evidence supporting this bundle is limited and harms secondary to compliance have not been investigated. OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the effect of an emergency department (ED) sepsis quality-improvement (QI) effort to improve CMS SEP-1 compliance, looking specifically at antibiotic overtreatment and harm from fluid resuscitation. METHODS: This was a retrospective observational study conducted between March and July 2021 with patients for whom a sepsis order set was initiated. The primary outcomes included the number of patients treated with antibiotics who were ultimately deemed nonseptic and the number of patients who developed pulmonary edema, with or without need for positive pressure ventilation (PPV), within 48 h of receiving a 30 mL/kg fluid bolus. Data were collected via nonblinded chart reviews, with a free marginal κ-calculation indicating excellent interrater reliability. RESULTS: The study cohort included 273 patients, 170 (62.3%) who were ultimately determined to be septic and 103 (37.7%) who were nonseptic. Of the 103 nonseptic patients, 82 (79.6%) received antibiotics in the ED. Of the 121 patients (44.3%) who received a 30 mL/kg bolus, 5 patients (4.1%) developed pulmonary edema and 0 of 121 patients required PPV within 48 h. CONCLUSIONS: The QI effort led to moderate rates of antibiotic overtreatment and very few patients developed pulmonary edema due to a 30 mL/kg fluid bolus.

Recently, hyperosmolar hyponatremia following excessive off-label use of two exchanges of 2 L icodextrin daily during peritoneal dialysis (PD) was reported. We encountered a cluster of 3 cases of PD patients who developed hyperosmolar hyponatremia during on-label use of icodextrin. This appeared to be due to absorption of icodextrin since after stopping icodextrin, the serum sodium level and osmol gap returned to normal, while a rechallenge again resulted in hyperosmolar hyponatremia. We excluded higher than usual concentrations of specific fractions of dextrins in fresh icodextrin dialysis fluid (lot numbers of used batches were checked by manufacturer). We speculate that in our patients, either an exaggerated degradation of polysaccharide chains by α-amylase activity in dialysate, lymph, and interstitium and/or rapid hydrolysis of the absorbed larger degradation products in the circulation may have contributed to the hyperosmolality observed, with the concentration of oligosaccharides exceeding the capacity of intracellular enzymes (in particular maltase) to metabolize these products to glucose. Both hyponatremia and hyperosmolality are risk factors for poor outcomes in PD patients. Less conventional PD prescriptions such as off-label use of two exchanges of 2 L icodextrin might raise the risk of this threatening side effect. This brief report is intended to create awareness of a rare complication of on-label icodextrin use in a subset of PD patients and/or PD prescriptions.

BACKGROUND: Whether acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor that reduces proximal tubular sodium reabsorption, can improve the efficiency of loop diuretics, potentially leading to more and faster decongestion in patients with acute decompensated heart failure with volume overload, is unclear. METHODS: In this multicenter, parallel-group, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, we assigned patients with acute decompensated heart failure, clinical signs of volume overload (i.e., edema, pleural effusion, or ascites), and an N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide level of more than 1000 pg per milliliter or a B-type natriuretic peptide level of more than 250 pg per milliliter to receive either intravenous acetazolamide (500 mg once daily) or placebo added to standardized intravenous loop diuretics (at a dose equivalent to twice the oral maintenance dose). Randomization was stratified according to the left ventricular ejection fraction (≤40% or >40%). The primary end point was successful decongestion, defined as the absence of signs of volume overload, within 3 days after randomization and without an indication for escalation of decongestive therapy. Secondary end points included a composite of death from any cause or rehospitalization for heart failure during 3 months of follow-up. Safety was also assessed. RESULTS: A total of 519 patients underwent randomization. Successful decongestion occurred in 108 of 256 patients (42.2%) in the acetazolamide group and in 79 of 259 (30.5%) in the placebo group (risk ratio, 1.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.17 to 1.82; P<0.001). Death from any cause or rehospitalization for heart failure occurred in 76 of 256 patients (29.7%) in the acetazolamide group and in 72 of 259 patients (27.8%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 1.07; 95% CI, 0.78 to 1.48). Acetazolamide treatment was associated with higher cumulative urine output and natriuresis, findings consistent with better diuretic efficiency. The incidence of worsening kidney function, hypokalemia, hypotension, and adverse events was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of acetazolamide to loop diuretic therapy in patients with acute decompensated heart failure resulted in a greater incidence of successful decongestion.

PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW: Progressive intravascular, interstitial, and alveolar fluid overload underlies the transition from compensated to acutely decompensated heart failure and loop diuretics are the mainstay of treatment. Adverse effects and resistance to loop diuretics received much attention while the contribution of a depressed cardiac output to diuretic resistance was downplayed. RECENT FINDINGS: Analysis of experience with positive inotropic agents, especially dobutamine, indicates that enhancement of cardiac output is not consistently associated with increased renal blood flow. However, urinary output and renal sodium excretion increase likely due to dobutamine-mediated decrease in renal and systemic reduced activation of sympathetic nervous- and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Mechanical circulatory support with left ventricular assist devices ascertained the contribution of low cardiac output to diuretic resistance and the pathogenesis and progression of kidney disease in acutely decompensated heart failure. Diuretic resistance commonly occurs in acutely decompensated heart failure. However, failure to resolve fluid overload despite high doses of loop diuretics should alert to the presence of a low cardiac output state.

BACKGROUND: Tolvaptan (TLV) is reported to improve diuretic effects in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) when furosemide (FUR) is not sufficiently effective. However, it is not clear whether TLV addition is effective for advanced CKD patients with heart failure. METHODS: An open-label, parallel-group randomized trial was performed. The subjects were 33 patients with CKD stage G3-G5 who had fluid overload despite taking 20-100 mg/day FUR. They were divided into two groups: a group administered 15 mg/day TLV plus their original FUR dose for 7 days (TLV group), and a group administered 120-200 mg/day FUR (i.e., 100 mg/day over their previous dose) for 7 days (FUR group). RESULTS: The mean change in urine volume was significantly higher in the TLV group compared to the FUR group (637 ml vs 119 ml; p < 0.05). The difference was greater when the urine osmolality before treatment was high. Serum creatinine was increased only in the FUR group. The incidence of worsening renal function (WRF) was significantly lower in the TLV group (18.8% vs 58.8%; p < 0.05). Serum sodium decreased significantly in the FUR group, but did not change in the TLV group. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with advanced CKD with fluid overload, the addition of TLV achieved a significantly higher urine volume with less adverse effects on renal function compared with increasing the dose of FUR. The efficacy and safety of TLV were higher in patients who had higher urine osmolality and lower serum sodium before treatment. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: UMIN000014763.

Understanding physiologic water balance and homeostasis mechanisms in the neonate is critical for clinicians in the NICU as pathologic fluid accumulation increases the risk for morbidity and mortality. In addition, once this process occurs, treatment is limited. In this review, we will cover fluid homeostasis in the neonate, explain the implications of prematurity on this process, discuss the complexity of fluid accumulation and the development of fluid overload, identify mitigation strategies, and review treatment options.

In Covid-19, systemic disturbances may progress due to development of cytokine storm and dysregulation of and plasma osmolarility due to high release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and neuro-hormonal disorders. Arginine vasopressin (AVP) which is involve in the regulation of body osmotic system, body water content, blood pressure and plasma volume, that are highly disturbed in Covid-19 and linked with poor clinical outcomes. Therefore, this present study aimed to find the potential association between AVP serum level and inflammatory disorders in Covid-19. It has been observed by different recent studies that physiological response due to fever, pain, hypovolemia, dehydration, and psychological stress is characterized by activation release of AVP to counter-balance high blood viscosity in Covid-19 patients. In addition, activated immune cells mainly T and B lymphocytes and released pro-inflammatory cytokines stimulate discharge of stored AVP from immune cells, which in a vicious cycle trigger release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Vasopressin receptor antagonists have antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects that may inhibit AVP-induced hyponatremia and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in Covid-19. In conclusion, release of AVP from hypothalamus is augmented in Covid-19 due to stress, high pro-inflammatory cytokines, high circulating AngII and inhibition of GABAergic neurons. In turn, high AVP level leads to induction of hyponatremia, inflammatory disorders, and development of complications in Covid-19 by activation of NF-κB and NLRP3 inflammasome with release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, AVP antagonists might be novel potential therapeutic modality in treating Covid-19 through mitigation of AVP-mediated inflammatory disorders and hyponatremia.

BACKGROUND: Cisplatin-associated electrolyte dysregulation is a prevalent therapy-related adverse effect. There are numerous electrolyte-supplemented hydration regimens that have been evaluated, however these studies focused on the development of nephrotoxicity. The objective of this study was to characterize the impact of magnesium and potassium-supplemented hydration during cisplatin administration on subsequent magnesium and potassium imbalances. METHODS: A single-region retrospective study from central Texas at Baylor Scott & White Cancer Clinics who were treated with two or more cycles of cisplatin were included. Standard hydration for this study was defined as normal saline before and after cisplatin along with potassium chloride 10 mEq and magnesium sulfate 1 g added to the cisplatin bag. RESULTS: A total of 477 patients were included in the study with376 patients receiving the standard hydration. Overall, 17 percent of patients experienced a potassium level below 3.5 mEq/L, but no major depletion was observed. Thirty-three percent of the patients experienced a magnesium level below 1.8 mg/dL, and time to first rescue magnesium supplementation was 4 weeks. CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrated despite routine magnesium and potassium supplementation in hydration, magnesium imbalances were observed. Potassium levels post cisplatin administration were maintained with minimal routine supplementation in hydration.

Despite evidence highlighting harms of fluid overload, minimal guidance exists on counteraction via utilization of diuretics in the de-resuscitation phase. While diuretics have been shown to decrease net volume and improve clinical outcomes in the critically ill, a lack of standardization surrounding selection of diuretic regimen or monitoring of de-resuscitation exists. Current monitoring parameters of de-resuscitation often rely on clinical signs of fluid overload, end organ recovery and other biochemical surrogate markers which are often deemed unreliable. The majority of evidence suggests that achieving a net-negative fluid balance within 72 h after shock resolution may be of benefit; however, approaches to such goal are uncertain. Loop diuretics are a widely available type of diuretic for removal of volume in patients with sufficient kidney function, with the potential for adjunct diuretics in special circumstances. At present, administration of diuretics within the broad critically ill population fails to find uniformity and often efficacy. Given the lack of randomized controlled trials in this susceptible population, we aim to provide a thorough therapeutic understanding of diuretic pharmacotherapy which is necessary in order to achieve desired goal of fluid balance and improve overall outcomes.

Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are epoxy fatty acids that have biological actions that are essential for maintaining water and electrolyte homeostasis. An inability to increase EETs in response to a high-salt diet results in salt-sensitive hypertension. Vasodilation, inhibition of epithelial sodium channel, and inhibition of inflammation are the major EET actions that are beneficial to the heart, resistance arteries, and kidneys. Genetic and pharmacological means to elevate EETs demonstrated antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, and organ protective actions. Therapeutic approaches to increase EETs were then developed for cardiovascular diseases. sEH (soluble epoxide hydrolase) inhibitors were developed and progressed to clinical trials for hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and other diseases. EET analogs were another therapeutic approach taken and these drugs are entering the early phases of clinical development. Even with the promise for these therapeutic approaches, there are still several challenges, unexplored areas, and opportunities for epoxy fatty acids.

Objectives: To assess tolvaptan's efficacy and safety in critical care patients with volume overload. Methods: Prospective observational study. Twenty-eight patients in the recovery phase from multiple organ failure and with volume overload refractory to conventional therapy treated with tolvaptan were included. Results: Patients received an initial daily dose of 3.75 (n=1), 7.5 (n=8) and 15 (n=19) mg of tolvaptan. Median treatment duration was 2 days (range: 1 to 12). All patients presented an increase in 24 hours diuresis after the first dose (median increase from baseline (IQR)=1114 (285-1943) mL), with a median net daily fluid loss of 1007 mL (456-2380) mL after 24 hours. High diuretic efficacy (daily fluid loss higher than 0.5 L with tolvaptan first dose) was detected in 18 patients (64.3%). Initial hyponatraemia was present in 16 (57.1%) patients, while overly rapid correction with tolvaptan treatment occurred in two patients without clinical consequences. Two patients presented hypophosphataemia after treatment. Conclusion: Tolvaptan is an effective therapeutic option in critically ill patients with volume overload refractory to conventional diuretics. Further studies are required to evaluate its safety profile and its effect on short-term outcomes and mortality.

OBJECTIVE: Administration of diuretics has been shown to assist fluid management and improve clinical outcomes in the critically ill post-shock resolution. Current guidelines have not yet included standardization or guidance for diuretic-based de-resuscitation in critically ill patients. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a multi-disciplinary protocol for diuresis-guided de-resuscitation in the critically ill. METHODS: This was a pre-post single-center pilot study within the medical intensive care unit (ICU) of a large academic medical center. Adult patients admitted to the Medical ICU receiving mechanical ventilation with either (1) clinical signs of volume overload via chest radiography or physical exam or (2) any cumulative fluid balance ≥ 0 mL since hospital admission were eligible for inclusion. Patients received diuresis per clinician discretion for a 2-year period (historical control) followed by a diuresis protocol for 1 year (intervention). Patients within the intervention group were matched in a 1:3 ratio with those from the historical cohort who met the study inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS: A total of 364 patients were included, 91 in the protocol group and 273 receiving standard care. Protocolized diuresis was associated with a significant decrease in 72-h post-shock cumulative fluid balance [median, IQR - 2257 (- 5676-920) mL vs 265 (- 2283-3025) mL; p < 0.0001]. In-hospital mortality in the intervention group was lower compared to the historical group (5.5% vs 16.1%; p = 0.008) and higher ICU-free days (p = 0.03). However, no statistically significant difference was found in ventilator-free days, and increased rates of hypernatremia and hypokalemia were demonstrated. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that a protocol for diuresis for de-resuscitation can significantly improve 72-h post-shock fluid balance with potential benefit on clinical outcomes.

BACKGROUND: We have previously investigated the fate of administered bicarbonate infused as a hypertonic solution in animals with each of the 4 chronic acid-base disorders. Those studies did not address the fate of sodium, the coadministered cation. METHODS: We examined baseline total body water (TBW), Na+ space, HCO3- space, and urinary sodium and bicarbonate excretion after acute hypertonic NaHCO3 infusion (1-N solution, 5 mmol/kg body weight) in dogs with each of the 4 chronic acid-base disorders. Observations were made at 30, 60, and 90 min postinfusion. Retained sodium that remains osmotically active distributes in an apparent space that approximates TBW. Na+ space that exceeds TBW uncovers nonosmotic sodium storage. RESULTS: Na+ space approximated TBW at all times in normal and hyperbicarbonatemic animals (metabolic alkalosis and respiratory acidosis), but exceeded TBW by ~30% in hypobicarbonatemic animals (metabolic acidosis and respiratory alkalosis). Such osmotic inactivation was detected at 30 min and remained stable. The pooled data revealed that Na+ space corrected for TBW was independent of the initial blood pH but correlated with initial extracellular bicarbonate concentration (y = -0.01x + 1.4, p= 0.002). The fate of administered sodium and bicarbonate (internal distribution and urinary excretion) was closely linked. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that hypobicarbonatemic animals have a Na+ space that exceeds TBW after an acute infusion of hypertonic NaHCO3 indicating osmotic inactivation of a fraction of retained sodium. In addition to an expanded Na+ space, these animals have a larger HCO3- space compared with hyperbicarbonatemic animals. Both phenomena appear to reflect the wider range of titration of nonbicarbonate buffers (Δ pH) occurring during NaHCO3- loading whenever initial [HCO3-]e is low. The data indicate that the fate of administered bicarbonate drives the internal distribution and the external disposal of sodium, the co-administered cation, and is responsible for the early, but non-progressive, osmotic inactivation of a fraction of the retained sodium.

BACKGROUND: Infants after cardiopulmonary bypass are exposed to increasing inflammatory mediator release and are at risk of developing fluid overload. The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the impact of passive peritoneal drainage on achieving negative fluid balance and its ability to dispose of inflammatory cytokines. METHODS: From September 2014 to November 2016, infants undergoing STAT category 3, 4, and 5 operations were randomized to receive or not receive intraoperative prophylactic peritoneal drain. We analyzed time to negative fluid balance and perioperative variables for each group. Pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines were measured from serum and peritoneal fluid in the passive peritoneal drainage group and serum in the control group postoperatively. RESULTS: Infants were randomized to prophylactic passive peritoneal drain group (n = 13) and control (n = 12). The groups were not significantly different in pre- and postoperative peak lactate levels, postoperative length of stay, and mortality. Peritoneal drain patients reached time to negative fluid balance at a median of 1.42 days (interquartile range [IQR]: 1.00-2.91), whereas the control at 3.08 (IQR: 1.67-3.88; P = .043). Peritoneal drain patients had lower diuretic index at 72 hours, median of 2.86 (IQR: 1.21-4.94) versus 6.27 (IQR: 4.75-11.11; P = .006). Consistently, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and interferon-γ were present at higher levels in peritoneal fluid than serum at 24 and 72 hours. However, serum cytokine levels in peritoneal drain and control group, at 24 and 72 hours postoperatively, did not differ significantly. CONCLUSIONS: The prophylactic passive peritoneal drain patients reached negative fluid balance earlier and used less diuretic in early postoperative period. The serum cytokine levels did not differ significantly between groups at 24 and 72 hours postoperatively. However, there was no significant difference in mortality and postoperative length of stay.

INTRODUCTION: Balanced fluid replacement solutions can possibly reduce the risks for electrolyte imbalances, for acid-base imbalances, and thus for renal failure. To assess the intraoperative change of base excess (BE) and chloride in serum after treatment with either a balanced gelatine/electrolyte solution or a non-balanced gelatine/electrolyte solution, a prospective, controlled, randomized, double-blind, dual centre phase III study was conducted in two tertiary care university hospitals in Germany. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 40 patients of both sexes, aged 18 to 90 years, who were scheduled to undergo elective abdominal surgery with assumed intraoperative volume requirement of at least 15 mL/kg body weight gelatine solution were included. Administration of study drug was performed intravenously according to patients need. The trigger for volume replacement was a central venous pressure (CVP) minus positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) <10 mmHg (CVP <10 mmHg). The crystalloid:colloid ratio was 1:1 intra- and postoperatively. The targets for volume replacement were a CVP between 10 and 14 mmHg minus PEEP after treatment with vasoactive agent and mean arterial pressure (MAP) > 65 mmHg. RESULTS: The primary endpoints, intraoperative changes of base excess -2.59 ± 2.25 (median: -2.65) mmol/L (balanced group) and -4.79 ± 2.38 (median: -4.70) mmol/L (non-balanced group)) or serum chloride 2.4 ± 1.9 (median: 3.0) mmol/L and 5.2 ± 3.1 (median: 5.0) mmol/L were significantly different (p = 0.0117 and p = 0.0045, respectively). In both groups (each n = 20) the investigational product administration in terms of volume and infusion rate was comparable throughout the course of the study, i.e. before, during and after surgery. DISCUSSION: Balanced gelatine solution 4% combined with a balanced electrolyte solution demonstrated significant smaller impact on blood gas analytic parameters in the primary endpoints BE and serum chloride when compared to a non-balanced gelatine solution 4% combined with NaCl 0.9%. No marked treatment differences were observed with respect to haemodynamics, coagulation and renal function.

The genetic background of a mouse strain determines its susceptibility to disease. C57BL/6J and Balb/CJ are two widely used inbred mouse strains that we found react dramatically differently to angiotensin II and high-salt diet (ANG II + Salt). Balb/CJ show increased mortality associated with anuria and edema formation while C57BL/6J develop arterial hypertension but do not decompensate and die. Clinical symptoms of heart failure in Balb/CJ mice gave the hypothesis that ANG II + Salt impairs cardiac function and induces cardiac remodeling in male Balb/CJ but not in male C57BL/6J mice. To test this hypothesis, we measured cardiac function using echocardiography before treatment and every day for 7 days during treatment with ANG II + Salt. Interestingly, pulsed wave Doppler of pulmonary artery flow indicated increased pulmonary vascular resistance and right ventricle systolic pressure in Balb/CJ mice, already 24 h after ANG II + Salt treatment was started. In addition, Balb/CJ mice showed abnormal diastolic filling indicated by reduced early and late filling and increased isovolumic relaxation time. Furthermore, Balb/CJ exhibited lower cardiac output compared with C57BL/6J even though they retained more sodium and water, as assessed using metabolic cages. Left posterior wall thickness increased during ANG II + Salt treatment but did not differ between the strains. In conclusion, ANG II + Salt treatment causes early restriction of pulmonary flow and reduced left ventricular filling and cardiac output in Balb/CJ, which results in fluid retention and peripheral edema. This makes Balb/CJ a potential model to study the adaptive capacity of the heart for identifying new disease mechanisms and drug targets.

AIM: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are an antihyperglycemic drug with diuretic properties. We recently reported that an SGLT2 inhibitor ameliorated extracellular fluid expansion with a transient increase in urinary Na+ excretion. However, the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on fluid distribution in comparison to conventional diuretics remain unclear. METHODS: Forty chronic kidney disease patients with fluid retention (average estimated glomerular filtration rate 29.2 ± 3.2 mL/min per 1.73 m2 ) were divided into the SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin (DAPA), loop diuretic furosemide (FR) and vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist tolvaptan (TLV). The body fluid volume was measured on days 0 and 7 using a bioimpedance analysis device. RESULTS: In all three groups, body weight was significantly and similarly decreased, and urine volume numerically increased for 7 days. Bioimpedance analysis showed that the changes in intracellular water were similar, but that there were significant changes in the extracellular water (ECW) (DAPA -8.4 ± 1.7, FR -12.5 ± 1.3, TLV -7.4 ± 1.5%, P = 0.048). As a result, the change in the ratio of ECW to total body water in the DAPA group was significantly smaller than that in the FR group, but numerically larger than that in the TLV group (DAPA -1.5 ± 0.5, FR -3.6 ± 0.5, TLV -0.5 ± 0.4%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor DAPA predominantly decreased the ECW with a mild increase in urine volume, but the change in the ECW/total body water was smaller than that in patients treated with FR, and larger than that in patients treated with TLV, suggesting that the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on fluid distribution may differ from those of conventional diuretics.

ADH is a hormone secreted by neurohypophysis that plays different roles based on the target organ. At the renal level, this peptide is capable of causing electrolyte-free water absorption, thus playing a key role in the hydro-electrolytic balance. There are pathologies and disorders that jeopardize this balance and, in this field, ADH receptor inhibitors such as Vaptans could play a key role. By inhibiting the activation pathway of vasopressin, they are potentially useful in euvolemic and hypervolemic hypotonic hyponatremia. However, clinical trials in heart failure have not given favourable results on clinical outcomes. Even in SIADH, despite their wide use, there is no agreement by experts on their use. Since vaptans inhibit the cAMP pathway in tubular cells, their use has been proposed to inhibit cystogenesis. A clinical trial has shown favourable effects on ADPKD progression. Because vaptans have been shown to be effective in models of renal cysts disorders other than ADPKD, their use has been proposed in diseases such as nephronophthisis and recessive autosomal polycystic disease. Other possible uses of vaptans could be in kidney transplantation and cardiorenal syndrome. Due to the activity of ADH in coagulation and haemostasis, ADH's activation pathway by Desmopressin Acetate could be a useful strategy to reduce the risk of bleeding in biopsies in patients with haemorrhagic risk.

BACKGROUND: Large networks of interstitial glycosaminoglycans help to regulate water and electrolyte homeostasis. The relation between dermal interstitial alterations and occurrence of edema in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is unknown. We hypothesize that in HFrEF patients (1) interstitial glycosaminoglycan density is increased, (2) changes in the interstitial glycosaminoglycan network are associated with interstitial fluid accumulation, and (3) there is a link between the interstitial glycosaminoglycan network and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two punch biopsies of the skin were obtained in healthy subjects (n=18) and HFrEF patients (n=29). Alcian blue staining and immunostaining for the angiotensin II type 1 receptor was performed. After obtaining tissue water content, total interstitial glycosaminoglycan (uronic acid) and sulfated glycosaminoglycan were quantified. A venous blood sample, clinical examination, and echocardiography were obtained. A significantly higher interstitial glycosaminoglycan content was observed in HFrEF patients compared with healthy subjects (uronic acid: 13.0±4.2 versus 9.6±1.6 µg/mg; P=0.002; sulfated glycosaminoglycan: 14.1 [11.7; 18.1] versus 10.0 [9.1; 10.8] µg/mg; P<0.001). Uronic acid and sulfated glycosaminoglycan density were strongly associated with tissue water content and peripheral edema (uronic acid: ρ=0.66; P<0.0001 and sulfated glycosaminoglycan: τ=0.58; P<0.0001). Expression of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor was found on dermal cells, although use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blocker was associated with significantly lower levels of interstitial glycosaminoglycans in HFrEF patients. CONCLUSIONS: Interstitial glycosaminoglycan concentration is significantly increased in HFrEF patients compared with healthy subjects and correlated with tissue water content and clinical signs of volume overload. A better appreciation of the interstitial compartment might improve management of volume overload in HF.
