AIMS: Maintenance of euvolaemia with diuretics is critical in heart failure (HF) patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD); however, it is challenging because no reliable marker of volume status exists. Fractional excretion of urea nitrogen (FEUN) is a useful index of volume status in patients with renal failure. We aimed to examine whether FEUN is a surrogate marker of volume status for risk stratification in HF patients with CKD.
METHODS AND RESULTS: We examined 516 HF patients with CKD (defined as discharge estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 ) whose FEUN was measured at discharge (median age, 80 years; 58% male). The patients were divided into four groups according to quartile FEUN value at discharge: low-FEUN, FEUN ≤ 32.1; medium-FEUN, 32.1 < FEUN ≤ 38.0; high-FEUN, 38.0 < FEUN ≤ 43.7; and extremely-high-FEUN, FEUN > 43.7. FEUN was calculated by the following formula: (urinary urea × serum creatinine) × 100/(serum urea × urinary creatinine). During the 3 year follow-up, 131 HF readmissions occurred. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the HF readmission rate was significantly lower in the medium-FEUN group than in the other three groups (log-rank test, P = 0.029). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified the low-FEUN, high-FEUN, and extremely-high-FEUN values as independent factors associated with post-discharge HF readmission. In the analysis of 130 patients who underwent right heart catheterization during hospitalization, a significant correlation between FEUN value and right atrial pressure was observed (R = 0.243, P = 0.005). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that FEUN value at discharge decreased in a dose-dependent manner with loop diuretics.
CONCLUSIONS: In HF patients with CKD, FEUN is a potential marker of volume status for risk stratification of post-discharge HF readmission. Low FEUN value (FEUN ≤ 32.1) may represent intravascular dehydration, whereas high FEUN value (FEUN > 38.0) may represent residual congestion; both of them were independent risk factors for HF readmission. FEUN may be useful to determine euvolaemia and guide fluid management in HF patients with CKD.
