a-FF
b-GFR
c-filtration load
d-plasma creatinine

Raheem you question are always tricky and chalenging.
I will try to think . probably I will get it wrong but I will try anyway. you want to evaluate renal function in heart failure, means I assume that the intrinsec kidney function is intact ( filtration absorbtion and secretion) means the creatinine level even if it will be increased , that is not because of kidney prob but essencially because of decresed kidney blood flow (heart failure = decreased EF). I think it is FF. because if kidney is intact it will sense the decresed in volume and will react to maintian the FF by constricting efferent . can you explain Raheem please.
