Dr. Alison Grazioli discussed the response to diuretics in HF:
What happens after you start loop diuretics?
🔸Net Na loss
🔸Short term Anti-Natruresis: ↗️Na retention
🔸Nephron remodeling
‼️Na loss may be equivalent to Na retention‼️

Patients with decompensated HF will need higher doses of diuretics due to decreased renal blood flow:

⚠️Sequential Nephron Blockade 🔥:
🔸Progressive increase in Na depletion.
🔸Diuretics work on different parts of the nephron- target different channels to optimize diuresis.
