概括
在美国住院治疗心力衰竭 (HF) 患者中使用指南导向医学治疗 (GDMT) 显示了显著的差距. 住院后,GDMT的启动被推迟,停止率很高,这表明现实世界治疗模式不足最佳.
科学领域:
- 心脏病学 心脏病学
- 药理学 药理学是指药理学的学科.
- 医疗保健服务研究 医疗服务研究
背景情况:
- 临床指导方针和试验建议早期指导方针导向医学治疗 (GDMT) 治疗心力衰竭 (HF).
- 该EMPACE研究调查了美国住院患HF (HHF) 的患者在现实世界GDMT的使用情况.
研究的目的:
- 为了检查心力衰竭住院患者在美国临床实践中的GDMT模式.
- 评估住院前后GDMT的开始,停止和时间.
主要方法:
- 使用非身份化美国患者数据的观察性队列研究 (2020年6月-2023年9月).
- 在HHF之前和之后的12个月内评估GDMT的使用.
- 在开始后的12个月内评估药物停用率.
主要成果:
- 只有1%的HF降低射出分数 (HFrEF) 患者在HHF前接受了四倍治疗;这增加到HHF后的2%.
- 在HHF后,β阻塞剂使用率为84%,ACEi/ARB使用率为72%,MRA使用率为38%,ARNI使用率为26%,SGLT2i使用率为13%.
- 对于ARNI (62%),MRAs (57%),SGLT2i (55%) 和β抑制剂 (51%) 观察到高的12个月停药率.
- 在轻度降低EF (HFmrEF) 和保存EF (HFpEF) 的HF中使用-葡萄糖共传递者-2抑制剂 (SGLT2i) 的比例分别从HHF后的7%增加到12%和9%.
结论:
- 在美国,对于HFrEF患者的入院前四重疗法存在显著的差距.
- 退院后GDMT使用的情况略有改善,但其特点是延迟开始和高停药率.
- 在HFmrEF和HFpEF群体中,在SGLT2i使用方面也发现了类似的亚最佳模式.

Additional therapies for treating patients with heart failure (HF) may include procedural interventions, supplemental oxygen, the management of sleep disorders, and nutritional therapy.Procedural InterventionsImplantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator: For patients at risk of life-threatening arrhythmias due to severe left ventricular dysfunction, an Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) can detect and terminate these arrhythmias, preventing sudden cardiac death and improving survival rates.

Heart Failure Drugs: Inhibitors of Renin-Angiotensin System
1.3K
The activation of the sympathetic nervous system and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) contributes to cardiac remodeling, and inhibiting the RAAS is a pharmacological target in heart failure management. As a result, neurohumoral modulation is a crucial treatment principle for managing heart failure. This approach involves using medications like ACE inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), β-blockers, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), and neutral...

The first step in nursing management of a patient with heart failure involves thoroughly assessing the patient's medical history.Subjective Data: Obtain the patient's medical history of coronary artery disease, hypertension, myocardial infarction, and symptoms like dyspnea, orthopnea, and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea.Objective Data: Conduct a physical examination to identify findings such as jugular vein distention, pulmonary crackles, tachycardia, murmurs, peripheral edema, and vital signs,...

Heart Failure IV: Classification and Diagnostic Evaluation

Heart failure can be classified in various ways, with the most common classifications based on physical activity limitations, disease progression, severity, and treatment strategies.The Functional Classification of Heart Failure divides patients into four categories based on physical activity limitation due to symptom burden.Class I: Patients in this class have cardiac disease but no physical activity limitations. Ordinary activities like walking, climbing stairs, or routine tasks do not cause...

Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) management can be divided into two main strategies: prevention and long-term management.Primary PreventionPrimary prevention focuses on timely diagnosis and management of group A streptococcal pharyngitis to prevent acute rheumatic fever. The most widely used antibiotic for treating this condition is intramuscular benzathine penicillin G.Acute Rheumatic Fever TreatmentThe primary treatment goal for a patient diagnosed with acute rheumatic fever is to suppress the...
