Highlights
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome that results from highly prevalent disorders in our society, including chronic hypertension and coronary artery disease
[2] Lin-Hua Tan [4] reported a case with reversible acute renal failure in a premature neonate with double outlet right ventricle and congestive heart failure (CHF) induced by Captopril
We described a case with CHF and moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD) occurred acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by benazepril, which showed the application of benazepril in CHF and mild to moderate CKD still should be careful
Summary
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome that results from highly prevalent disorders in our society, including chronic hypertension and coronary artery disease. For the previous 10 days, his Abdominal circumference and body weight obviously increased He had a history of hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, CHF and Renal dysfunction.
