OBJECTIVES The present analysis examines the prognostic implications of moderate renal insufficiency in patients with asymptomatic and symptomatic:left ventricular systolic dysfunction.BACKGROUND Chronic elevations in intracardiac filling pressures may lead to progressive ventricular dilation and heart failure progression. The ability to maintain fluid balance and prevent increased intracardiac filling pressures is critically dependent on the adequacy of renal function.METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of the Studies of Left Ventricular Dysfunction (SOLVD) Trials, in which moderate renal insufficiency is defined as a baseline creatinine clearance
