Summary

The aim of the study is to compare the effects of torasemide and furosemide on clinical and biochemical parameters of hemodynamic and neurohormonal compensation and myocardial remodeling in patients with chronic heart failure with indications for use of loop diuretics.

The study protocol 100 patients with heart failure NYHA (New York Heart Association) II-IV (stable or exacerbation aligned cardiopulmonary at the time of enrollment, with a fixed-dose loop diuretics\]) treated with optimal medical therapy as clinically indicated for use loop diuretics. Patients will be randomized to treatment with furosemide and torasemide (randomization 1 : 1). After randomization, furosemide will continue in its current fixed-dose or will be replaced by equipotential dose of torasemide (4:1). The minimal follow-up of patients in the study will be at least six months.
