Adis Summary of Research: The use of drugs that should be avoided or used with caution in patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure
摘要
Little attention has been given to the use of medications in patients with heart failure (HF) where potential risks may outweigh the benefits. This Adis Summary of Research summarises the findings of a study that assessed the use of medications known to cause or exacerbate HF and prolong the QT interval among patients hospitalised for acute decompensated HF (ADHF) based on a retrospective chart review.
