Journal ArticleDOI

Alan S. Maisel,Alan S. Maisel,Christian Mueller,Kirkwood F. Adams,Stefan D. Anker,Nadia Aspromonte,John G.F. Cleland,Alain Cohen-Solal,Ulf Dahlström,Anthony N. DeMaria,Salvatore Di Somma,Gerasimos Filippatos,Gregg C. Fonarow,P. Jourdain,Michel Komajda,Peter P. Liu,Theresa McDonagh,Kenneth McDonald,Alexandre Mebazaa,Markku S. Nieminen,W. Frank Peacock,Marco Tubaro,Roberto Valle,Marc Vanderhyden,Clyde W. Yancy,Faiez Zannad,Eugene Braunwald +26 more
TL;DR: Ten key messages to clinicians are highlighted about the role of NP levels in state‐of‐the‐art clinical practice is evolving rapidly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimizing fluid management in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF): the emerging role of combined measurement of body hydration status and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels
Roberto Valle,Nadia Aspromonte,Loredano Milani,Frank Peacock,Alan S. Maisel,Massimo Santini,Claudio Ronco +6 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that combined BNP/BIVA sequential measurements help to achieve adequate fluid balance status in patients with ADHF is confirmed and can be used to drive a “tailored therapy,” allowing clinicians to identify high-risk patients and possibly to reduce the incidence of complications secondary to fluid management strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnosis and Management of Fluid Overload in Heart Failure and Cardio-Renal Syndrome: The “5B” Approach
TL;DR: Consideration of the "5B" approach, which stands for balance of fluids, blood pressure, biomarkers, bioimpedance vector analysis, and blood volume, is suggested for heart failure patients to ensure that the most important issues affecting symptoms and outcomes are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
B-Type Natriuretic Peptide–Guided Treatment for Predicting Outcome in Patients Hospitalized in Sub–Intensive Care Unit With Acute Heart Failure
Roberto Valle,Nadia Aspromonte,P. Giovinazzo,Emanuele Carbonieri,Mario Chiatto,Giuseppe Di Tano,Mauro Feola,Massimo Milli,Alessandra Fontebasso,Sabrina Barro,Stefania Bardellotto,Loredano Milani +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that variations in BNP levels during hormone-guided treatment and measured body hydration status enable the timing of the patient's discharge to be optimized, and the usefulness of BNP in intrahospital stratification of AHF, in the decision-making process, and as a tool for "tailored therapy".
Journal Article
A comprehensive management system for heart failure improves clinical outcomes and reduces medical resource utilization
Roberto Valle,Emanuele Carbonieri,Pierluigi Tenderini,Carlo Zanella,Francesca De Cian,Giuliana Ginocchio,Sergio Cannas,Daniele Milan,Loredano Milani +8 more
TL;DR: This study showed that a guideline-based management program for patients with heart failure at discharge improves quality of life and reduces readmission for DRG 127 and total bed days, allowing relevant cost savings.
