Subjects in the present study (189 men and 126 women) were classified as either CAD cases or controls according to the results of coronary angiography. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In addition, the present study focused on the association of HCT with acute heart failure, and thus, troponin levels and HCT were not compared in the present study. [spandidos-publications.com]

Thus, HCT is an indicator reflecting the severity of anemia and sodium retention, which are linked to kidney dysfunction and affect the prognosis of patients with HF (18). [spandidos-publications.com]

- Weight Loss
Signs of decongestion (reduction in BNP blood concentrations, P = 0.003; weight loss, P = 0.002) were significantly more pronounced in haemoconcentration patients. WRF was more common in haemoconcentration patients (P = 0.04). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The use and effects of diuretic therapy must therefore be carefully monitored.5,6 HC may be linked with increased risk of WRF during hospitalization, increased diuretic doses, and greater weight loss.15 However, in multivariate analysis, HC is not linked [revportcardiol.org]
Both diuretic dose and weight loss were higher in PROTECT. [ahajournals.org]
For instance, HCT was indicated to be closely associated with a more extensive weight loss and elevated risk of exacerbated kidney function in patients with AHF during hospitalization (9), whereas the data from the Korean Heart Failure Registry suggested [spandidos-publications.com]

Irritability, insomnia, and dizziness may also occur. Visual disturbances may be experienced at higher altitudes. [patient.info]
Workup
Finally, as Martins et al. suggest, HC is associated with better outcomes but cannot replace clinical assessment in the initial diagnosis of AHF and a proper diagnostic workup that includes specific biomarkers, as well as BUN, SCr, hemoglobin and hematocrit [revportcardiol.org]

- Hematocrit Increased
Hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit increased reaching 16.4 ± 0.9 g/dL and 48.8% ± 1.6%, respectively, at 100 W and were maintained until recovery. Arterial oxygen content was constant during exercise and increased in the recovery period. [liebertpub.com]
HR increased significantly from baseline ( ) to poststress ( ),, and remained elevated at recovery ( ),. Hematocrit increased significantly from baseline ( ) to stress ( ),, but was not significantly different from baseline at recovery ( ),. [hindawi.com]

Finally, hyperglycemia because of ineffective diabetes mellitus treatment may have influenced fluid shifts; unfortunately we did not have appropriate data, such as medication for diabetes mellitus or hemoglobin A1c, available to fully elucidate this. [ahajournals.org]

It is important to quickly get treatment in case of these complications. Aspirin or Brufen or Ibubrufen should not be taken. [healthkart.com]
Prognosis
As the authors point out, AHF patients with mild creatinine elevation but without established renal failure have a better prognosis, since these changes are due to hemoconcentration (HC) rather than to true WRF. [revportcardiol.org]
Experimental model on animals has shown that a haemoconcentration carried a poor prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Hence, the effectiveness of HCT to predict the prognosis of AHF patients remains elusive. [spandidos-publications.com]
The factors significantly associated with poor prognosis group (DHF/DSS) were anorexia, altered mentation, conjunctival injections, anaemia with Hb < 10 mg%, haemoconcentration with haematocrit > 40, thrombocytopenia and deranged liver enzymes SGOT. positive [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

Pathophysiology
Hemoconcentration was performed in both VA and VV ECMO patients with a wide variety of pathophysiologies. ECMO flow rates, chemistry and iStat labs showed on average no difference. [hsrc.himmelfarb.gwu.edu]
CONCLUSIONS: Haemoconcentration represents an inexpensive and easily assessable pathophysiological signal of adequate decongestion in AHF and is associated with lower mortality. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
