The CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, and R2CHADS2 scores are well-known predictors of stroke caused by atrial fibrillation (AF), but no studies have evaluated their use for stratifying all-cause mortality risk in patients discharged for systolic heart failure (SHF) with or without AF.This study analyzed data in the Taiwan Society of Cardiology-heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (TSOC-HFrEF) registry. These data were obtained by a prospective, multicenter, observational survey of patients treated at 21 medical centers in Taiwan after hospitalization for acute, pre-existing or new onset SHF from May, 2013 to October, 2014. During 1 year follow-up, 198 patients were lost follow-up, and final 1311 (86.8%) patients were included for further analysis. During the follow-up period, 250 (19%) patients died. Multivariate analysis revealed that body mass index, thyroid disorder, valvular surgery history, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and scores for CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, and R2CHADS2 were significant independent predictors of mortality in the overall population of SHF patients (all P < .05) The c-indexes showed that CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, and R2CHADS2 scores were significantly associated with mortality in SHF patients with or without AF (all P < 005). However, R2CHADS2 had significantly higher accuracy in predicting mortality in all SHF patients compared with CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc (DeLong test, P < .0001), especially in SHF without AF (DeLong test, P = .0003).Scores for CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, and R2CHADS2 can be used to predict 1-year all-cause mortality in SHF patients with or without AF. For predicting all-cause mortality in SHF patients, R2CHADS2 is more accurate than CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc.
CHADS2、CHA2DS2-VASc和R2CHADS2评分是心房颤动(AF)所致卒中的著名预测指标,但尚无研究评估其用于对伴或不伴AF的收缩性心力衰竭(SHF)出院患者的全因死亡风险进行分层的情况。本研究分析了台湾心脏病学会射血分数降低的心力衰竭(TSOC-HFrEF)注册研究中的数据。这些数据通过对2013年5月至2014年10月在台湾21家医疗中心因急性、既往存在或新发SHF住院治疗的患者进行前瞻性、多中心、观察性调查获得。在1年随访期间,198例患者失访,最终纳入1311例(86.8%)患者进行进一步分析。在随访期间,250例(19%)患者死亡。多变量分析显示,体重指数、甲状腺疾病、瓣膜手术史、慢性肾脏病(CKD)以及CHADS2、CHA2DS2-VASc和R2CHADS2评分是SHF患者总体人群中死亡的显著独立预测因素(所有P<0.05)。c指数显示,CHADS2、CHA2DS2-VASc和R2CHADS2评分与伴或不伴AF的SHF患者的死亡率显著相关(所有P<0.005)。然而,与CHADS2和CHA2DS2-VASc相比,R2CHADS2在预测所有SHF患者的死亡率方面具有显著更高的准确性(DeLong检验,P<0.0001),尤其是在不伴AF的SHF患者中(DeLong检验,P=0.0003)。CHADS2、CHA2DS2-VASc和R2CHADS2评分可用于预测伴或不伴AF的SHF患者的1年全因死亡率。对于预测SHF患者的全因死亡率,R2CHADS2比CHADS2和CHA2DS2-VASc更准确。
