Diagnostic scores predict morbidity and mortality in patients hospitalised for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
European Journal of Heart Failure Mar 14, 2021
Verbrugge FH, Reddy YNV, Sorimachi H, et al. - This study was undertaken to explore the prognostic value of diagnostic scores for heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Researchers assessed consecutive patients with HFpEF admitted for unequivocal decompensated HF treated with intravenous loop diuretics (n = 443; mean age 78 ± 12 years; 60% women). It was shown that a higher HFpEF probability according to diagnostic scores is correlated with an elevated risk of subsequent HF readmissions and all‐cause mortality among patients hospitalized with HFpEF.
