We analysed the data of the EAHFE registry, a multicentre, non interventionist cohort with prospective follow-up of patients with AHF. Four groups were defined based on the presence or not of RD or Hk alone or in combination. The primary endpoint was 30-day all-cause mortality. A total of 11,935 of the 13,791 patients included in the EAHFE registry were analysed. Of these, 5088 (42.6%) did not have RD or Hk (NoRD-NoHk), 150 (1.3%) had no RD but had Hk (NoRD-Hk), 6012 (50.4%) had RD but not Hk (RD-NoHk) and 685 (5.7%) had both RD and Hk (RD-Hk). Thirty-day all-cause mortality was greatest in the RD-Hk group with an adjusted Hazard Ratio (HR) of 2.44 (confidence interval 95% [CI95%] 1.67-3.55; p  The association of 30-day all-cause mortality with the presence of RD and Hk in patients presenting AHF at admission is greater than in those without this combination.enAcute heart failureHyperkalaemiaOutcomesRenal dysfunctionAcute DiseaseAgedCause of DeathFemaleHeart FailureHumansHyperkalemiaKidney DiseasesMaleProspective StudiesRegistriesresearch article31331793open access10.1016/j.ejim.2019.07.0101879-0828http://repositori.upf.edu/bitstream/10230/43252/1/jacob-eji-acut.pdf
