Recent studies indicate the need to redefine worsening renal function (WRF) in acute heart failure (AHF), linking a rise in creatinine with clinical status to identify patients who develop ‘true WRF’. We evaluated the usefulness of serial assessment of urinary levels of neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin (uNGAL), kidney injury molecule‐1 (uKIM‐1), and cystatin C (uCysC) for prediction of ‘true WRF’.
