- Abstract : Evidence‐Based Answer : In patients with cardiorenal syndrome, chronic hemodialysis has not been compared with diuretics. Short‐term hemodialysis with slow continuous ultrafiltration for 8 to 72 hours increases inpatient weight loss and fluid removal compared with intravenous (IV) diuretics (SOR: C, meta‐analysis of RCTs with diseaseoriented outcomes). Ultrafiltration does not consistently reduce HF readmission rates (SOR: B, meta‐analysis of RCTs with moderate heterogeneity). The Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) states that ultrafiltration may be considered when diuretic therapy fails to improve volume overload in acute decompensated HF (SOR: C, expert opinion).
