Summary
Heart failure is a syndrome that is defined by distinctive clinical, hemodynamic, and neurohormonal findings. HF represents a final common pathway for many different cardiovascular diseases, including coronary disease, hypertension, Valvular disease, and many primary heart muscle diseases. Clinically, HF patients experience dyspnea, fatigue and diminished exercise tolerance, reflecting elevated left and/or right ventricular filling pressures and decreased cardiac output.
Description
Heart failure patients are frequently hospitalized and have a high mortality rate and accounts for over 1 million hospital admissions yearly in the U.S. It is associated with a 2-year mortality rate of up to 40% to 50. The annual mortality rate for Acute Decompensated Heart Failure (ADHF) is 21%. ADHF initial hospitalization mortality rates range from 4% to 7%, with mortality as high as 22% in high risk patients. About 30% to 60% of ADHF patients are readmitted within 3-6 months after discharge from the first hospitalization. Inpatient treatment for ADHF consists of diuretics, vasodilators and…

Inclusion Criteria: Men and women over 18 years of age are included. Eligible subjects must be hospitalized with a primary diagnosis of ADHF or acute MI. The diagnosis of HF is established by the presence of typical symptoms, signs, and objective evidence of pulmonary congestion, elevated BNP or N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) or impaired cardiac function. Acute MI is diagnosed by presence of chest pain, arm pain, or dyspnea with elevated Troponin and/or EKG changes suggestive of Acute coronary syndrome requiring intervention or optimal medical therapy.
