The aim of this study was to address the impact of long-acting loop diuretics on the treatment of heart failure and heart failure-associated arrhythmias in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction patients implanted with a cardiac resynchronization therapy device.
Pharmacokinetics
Exploratory
The primary endpoints were the variation of fluid index and thoracic impedance measured by cardiac resynchronization therapy at 6 months.

We randomly allocated all patients into 2 groups using the envelope method. We used furosemide as short-acting loop diuretics, whereas azosemide as long-acting loop diuretics.
In the furosemide group, the patients were given furosemide as a first drug for 6 months. Then azosemide as a second treatment were received for additional 6 months. There was no washout period at the crossover time because the patients needed to continue taking some diuretic drugs to relieve their symptoms.

Male and Female
Patients implanted with a cardiac resynchronization therapy device who had previously taken loop diuretics were enrolled in this study.
The exclusion criteria were 1) any changes pertaining to medication use within 1 month, 2) patients planning an admission to a hospital within the next 3 month for any reasons, and 3) patients undergoing haemodialysis.
