TY - JOUR T1 - ISolated ultrafiltration in the treatment of fluid overload in cardiogenic shock AU - Gerhardt RE, Abdulla AM, Mach SJ, Hudson JB Y1 - 1979/03/01 N1 - 10.1001/archinte.1979.03630400074026 JO - Archives of Internal Medicine SP - 358 EP - 359 VL - 139 IS - 3 N2 - Dramatic improvement in measured hemodynamic values, arterial blood gas values, and renal function was quickly achieved by the use of isolated ultrafiltration in a patient with cardiogenic shock refractory to medical management. Swift venous access was obtained by femoral catheterization, and the rapid removal of 3,500 mL of ultrafiltrate was well tolerated. This technique may afford another mode of therapy in patients with refractory cardiogenic shock associated with severe volume overload.(Arch Intern Med 139:358-359, 1979) SN - 0003-9926 M3 - doi: 10.1001/archinte.1979.03630400074026 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/archinte.1979.03630400074026 ER -
