Timing on echocardiography and blood laboratory test is important for future outcome association in hospitalized heart failure patients

Abstract: Optimal examination timing for prognostication is different between echocardiography but not for blood tests. TTE before discharge provides more information in both HF phenotypes, while blood tests play a role both upon admission and before discharge. Therefore, a pre-discharge TTE was recommended in patients admitted for HF.

“…The multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis used in a retrospective study by Yang et al showed that several specific parameters of pre-discharge echo were associated with major adverse cardiovascular events after discharge for patients with HFrEF and HFpEF. 16 Thus, further prospective studies to evaluate the association of specific parameters of pre-discharge echo with cardiovascular death will be needed to augment our findings. Finally, this registry did not enrol consecutive hospitalized HF patients in each participating centre so that some extent bias regarding enrolment of patients may occur between the participating centres.…”

“…Yang et al previously reported that pre-discharge echo is important for hospitalized HF patients. 16 They retrospectively studied 267 hospitalized HF patients to investigate the utility of admission echo (within 2 days of admission) or pre-discharge echo (within 7 days of discharge) for predicting major adverse cardiovascular events. They showed that several pre-discharge echo parameters were associated with major adverse cardiovascular events for both HFrEF and HFpEF patients; however, none of the admission echo parameters were associated with such events.…”

“…A comprehensive transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) study that included 2-dimensional, M-mode, Doppler echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging was performed at the time of discharge according to the American Society of Echocardiography recommendations [16][17][18][19]. TTE examinations were performed using a Vivid 7 ultrasound (GE Healthcare, Horten, Norway) or an iE33 ultrasound (Philips Healthcare, Bothell, WA, USA).…”

“…As an evidence of the opinion it has been allowed presenting data, which confi rm higher predictive value of elevated SUA in HF patients beyond etiology of disease, cardiac pump function, traditional risk factors and estimated glomerular fi ltration rate [24][25][26]. Interestingly, large numbers of clinical and observational studies have shown that elevated SUA levels are associated with reduced survival in in-patients and outpatients with several phenotypes of chronic HF, as well as in acute / actually decompensated HF [27][28][29].…”
