Effect of furosemide on body composition and urinary proteins that mediate tubular sodium and sodium transport-A randomized controlled trial.

We found BIS can detect acute changes in body water content but the method may be limited to estimation of ECW. BIS demonstrated that furosemide increases ICW which might be explained by an extracellular sodium loss. Finally, urinary proteins from NKCC2 increases after furosemide with a good correlation with diuresis end the decrease in ECW.
