The purpose of this study was to investigate if a surrogate for renal neurohormonal activation, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), could identify patients destined to experience adverse outcomes associated with the use of high dose loop diuretics (HDLD). Loop diuretics are commonly used to control congestive symptoms in heart failure; however, these agents cause neurohormonal activation and are associated with worsened survival. Subjects in the Beta-Blocker Evaluation of Survival Trial receiving loop diuretics at baseline were analyzed (n=2456). The primary outcome was the interaction between BUN and HDLD associated mortality. In the overall cohort, HDLD use (≥160 mg/day) was associated with increased mortality (HR=1.56, 95% CI 1.35 to 1.80). However, after extensively controlling for baseline characteristics, this association did not persist (HR=1.06, 95% CI 0.89 to 1.25). In subjects with BUN levels above the median (21.0 mg/dl), both the unadjusted (HR=1.59, 95% CI 1.34 to 1.88) and adjusted (HR=1.29, 95% CI 1.07 to 1.60) risk for death was higher in the HDLD group. In patients with BUN levels below the median, there was no associated risk with HDLD (HR=0.99, 95% CI 0.75 to 1.34) and after controlling for baseline characteristics, the HDLD group had significantly improved survival (HR=0.71, 95% CI 0.49 to 0.96) (p interaction=0.018). The risk associated with HDLD use is strongly dependent on BUN concentrations with reduced survival in patients with elevated BUN and improved survival in patients with normal BUN. These data suggest a role for neurohormonal activation in loop diuretic associated mortality.
