To study the outcomes of patients with acute heart failure (AHF) presenting renal dysfunction (RD) or hyperkalaemia (Hk) alone or in combination.
We analysed the data of the EAHFE registry, a multicentre, non interventionist cohort with prospective follow-up of patients with AHF. Four groups were defined based on the presence or not of RD or Hk alone or in combination. The primary endpoint was 30-day all-cause mortality.
A total of 11,935 of the 13,791 patients included in the EAHFE registry were analysed. Of these, 5088 (42.6%) did not have RD or Hk (NoRD-NoHk), 150 (1.3%) had no RD but had Hk (NoRD-Hk), 6012 (50.4%) had RD but not Hk (RD-NoHk) and 685 (5.7%) had both RD and Hk (RD-Hk). Thirty-day all-cause mortality was greatest in the RD-Hk group with an adjusted Hazard Ratio (HR) of 2.44 (confidence interval 95% [CI95%] 1.67-3.55; p < 0.001) and in the RD-NoHk group with an adjusted HR of 1.34 (CI95% 1.04-1.71; p = 0.022). There were no significant differences in in-hospital mortality and reconsultation at 30 days for HF. For the combined endpoint of 30-day all-cause mortality the adjusted HR was 1.33 (CI95% 1.04-1.70); (p = 0.021) for the RD-Hk group.
The association of 30-day all-cause mortality with the presence of RD and Hk in patients presenting AHF at admission is greater than in those without this combination.
研究单独或合并存在急性心力衰竭(AHF)伴肾功能障碍(RD)或高钾血症(Hk)的患者的结局。
我们分析了 EAHFE 注册中心的数据,这是一项多中心、非干预性队列研究,对 AHF 患者进行前瞻性随访。根据是否存在 RD 或 Hk 单独或合并,将患者分为 4 组。主要终点为 30 天全因死亡率。
共分析了 EAHFE 注册中心的 13791 例患者中的 11935 例。其中,5088 例(42.6%)无 RD 或 Hk(NoRD-NoHk),150 例(1.3%)无 RD 但有 Hk(NoRD-Hk),6012 例(50.4%)有 RD 但无 Hk(RD-NoHk),685 例(5.7%)同时有 RD 和 Hk(RD-Hk)。RD-Hk 组 30 天全因死亡率最高,调整后的危险比(HR)为 2.44(95%置信区间[CI95%]1.67-3.55;p<0.001),RD-NoHk 组调整后的 HR 为 1.34(CI95%1.04-1.71;p=0.022)。住院死亡率和 30 天内因 HF 再次就诊率无显著差异。对于 30 天全因死亡率的联合终点,调整后的 HR 为 1.33(CI95%1.04-1.70);(p=0.021)对于 RD-Hk 组。
与入院时存在 AHF 的患者中 RD 和 Hk 相比,RD 和 Hk 同时存在与 30 天全因死亡率相关。
