High dose frusemide in established acute renal failure.

F Cantarovich, C Galli, L Benedetti

    British Medical Journal
    |November 24, 1973
    PubMed
    Summary

    High-dose frusemide (furosemide) treatment significantly improved outcomes in patients with acute renal failure. This approach increased diuresis, reduced oliguria, and shortened hospital stays, suggesting its benefit in severe cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Clinical Pharmacology

    Background:

    • Acute renal failure (ARF) presents a significant clinical challenge with high morbidity and mortality.
    • Management of established ARF often involves supportive care and renal replacement therapy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of high-dose frusemide (furosemide) in patients with established acute renal failure.
    • To compare treatment outcomes with control groups receiving standard care.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 105 patients with established ARF over six years.
    • Comparison of patients treated with daily high-dose frusemide (2,000 mg) from admission against control groups.

    Main Results:

    • High-dose frusemide significantly increased the number of patients achieving diuresis.

  • Treatment with frusemide decreased the duration of oliguria.
  • A reduction in hospital stay and the number of dialysis sessions required was observed.
  • Conclusions:

    • High-dose frusemide administration is indicated for patients with severe established acute renal failure.
    • This therapeutic approach may improve renal function recovery and reduce the need for renal replacement therapy.
