Influence of nonfatal hospitalization for heart failure on subsequent mortality in patients with chronic heart failure.
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic heart failure (HF) are at increased risk of both fatal and nonfatal major adverse cardiovascular events. We used data from the Candesartan in Heart failure: Assessment of Reduction in Mortality and morbidity (CHARM) trials to assess the influence of nonfatal hospitalizations for HF on subsequent mortality rates in a broad spectrum of HF patients. METHODS AND R...
متن کاملEffect of contraindicated drugs for heart failure on hospitalization among seniors with heart failure
Little is known about the effect of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), thiazolidinediones (TZDs), nifedipine and nondihydropyridine calcium channel blockers (CCBs) usage on the risk of all-cause hospitalization among seniors with heart failure (HF). We assessed the risk of all-cause hospitalization associated with exposure to each of these drug classes, in a population of seniors wi...
متن کاملDigoxin and reduction of heart failure hospitalization in chronic systolic and diastolic heart failure.
In the Digitalis Investigation Group trial, digoxin-associated decrease in the combined end point of heart failure (HF) hospitalization or HF mortality was significant in systolic but not in diastolic HF. To assess whether this apparent disparity could be explained by differences in baseline characteristics and sample size, we used propensity score matching to assemble a cohort of 916 pairs of ...
متن کاملHospitalization of patients with heart failure: a population-based study.
AIMS To describe the clinical course of heart failure in a population-based sample of incident cases, and to identify factors predicting hospitalization and mortality. METHODS AND RESULTS Three hundred and thirty-two incident cases were identified over 15 months; 208 inpatients and 124 outpatients. Thirty-eight inpatients died during the first hospital admission (case fatality 18%) leaving 29...
متن کاملPatterns of weight change preceding hospitalization for heart failure.
BACKGROUND Weight gain is used by disease-management programs as a marker of heart failure decompensation, but little information is available to quantify the relationship between weight change in patients with heart failure and the risk for imminent hospitalization. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted a nested case-control study among patients with heart failure referred to a home monitoring sy...
