ABSTRACT
Intravenous mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) have been used in some centers for decades to reduce the risk of hypokalemia and boost diuresis in acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF). We report the well-tolerated use of intravenous MRAs as a rescue procedure in 3 patients admitted for ADHF with important diuretic resistance. Undertaking trials evaluating the effect of this therapeutic strategy in ADHF could represent a promising avenue.
