Hepatic congestion with abnormal liver function tests (LFTs), including aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total bilirubin (TBL) complicates acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). The prognostic implication of abnormal LFTs in ADHF is less studied.
Hypothesis:
We hypothesized that abnormal LFTs would be associated with unfavorable outcomes in the Cardiorenal Rescue Study in Acute Decompensated Heart Fai… Show more
