Characteristic , outcome of heart failure hospitalization, mortality rate and factors associated with heart failure mortality in Kalasin Hospital, retrospective study.
Keywords:
Heart failure, hospitalization, mortalityAbstract
This study was retrospective study aimed to evaluate heart failure hospitalized patients in Kalasin Hospital in year 2021 to evaluate characteristics, risk factors, precipitating factors, heart failure management, outcome and factors associated with in-hospital mortality. Include all the heart failure hospitalized patients from 1st January until 31st December 2021. The data was retrieved by medical records. Patients’ characteristics, echocardiography, xrays, laboratorys, heart failure managements were evaluated. Mortality and rehospitalization rate in 1 year were calculated. Factors associated with in-hospital mortality were calculated by univariate and multivariate analysis.
Results : Patients factors that associated with in-hospital mortality were functional class, Killip classification, diabetes mellitus adjusted OR 5.89 95%CI 2.05-16.94,p 0.001 , gout adjusted OR 7.21(95%CI 1.64-31.6) ,p 0.009 the precipitating factors of heart failure which increased risk of in-hospital mortality were thyroid abnormalities OR 9.34(1.01-86.7) p0.05, anemia OR 51.89 95%CI 11.14-241.77 p 0.000 and NSAIDS used OR17.79 95%CI 1.26-250.90 p0.033. In patients that were safely discharge, the rate of appropriated guideline-directed medical treatment according to Thai heart failure guideline were low.
