Presentation Description / Summary: Most dogs and cats that present with acutely decompensated heart failure usually survive to hospital discharge. However, some are refractory to initial treatment. In this seminar we will review important diagnostic and therapeutic considerations in the management of patients with refractory heart failure in the ER setting.

Learner Outcomes: 1. To be knowledgeable about advanced therapeutic considerations if a heart failure patient is not responding to initial treatment. 2. To be knowledgeable as to how to improve diuretic response in refractory heart failure patients. 3. To be knowledgable about ventilatory and oxygenation modalities such as high flow nasal oxygen and invasive ventilation to support the patient with respiratory failure due to refractory heart failure

Learning Objectives:

  • 1. To be knowledgeable about advanced therapeutic considerations if a heart failure patient is not responding to initial treatment.
  • To be knowledgeable as to how to improve diuretic response in refractory heart failure patients.
  • To be knowledgable about ventilatory and oxygenation modalities such as high flow nasal oxygen and invasive ventilation to support the patient with respiratory failure due to refractory heart failure
