RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the epidemiology and outcomes of non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction-cardiogenic shock (NSTEMI-CS) in the United States. METHODS: Adult (>18 years) NSTEMI-CS admissions were identified using the National Inpatient Sample (2000-2017) and classified by tertiles of admission year (2000-2005, 2006-2011 and 2012-2017). Outcomes of interest included temporal trends of prevalence and in-hospital mortality, use of cardiac procedures, in-hospital mortality, hospitalization costs, and length of stay. RESULTS: In over 7.3 million NSTEMI admissions, CS was noted in 189,155 (2.6%). NSTEMI-CS increased from 1.5% in 2000 to 3.6% in 2017 (adjusted odds ratio 2.03 [95% confidence interval 1.97-2.09]; P < .001). Rates of non-cardiac organ failure and cardiac arrest increased during the study period. Between 2000 and 2017, coronary angiography (43.9%-63.9%), early coronary angiography (13.6%-25.6%), percutaneous coronary intervention (14.8%-31.6%), and coronary artery bypass grafting use (19.0%-25.8%) increased (P < .001). Over the study period, the use of intra-aortic balloon pump remained stable (28.6%-28.8%), and both percutaneous left ventricular assist devices (0%-9.1%) and extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (0.1%-1.6%) increased (all P < .001). In hospital mortality decreased from 50.2% in 2000 to 32.3% in 2017 (adjusted odds ratio 0.27 [95% confidence interval 0.25-0.29]; P < .001). During the 18-year period, hospital lengths of stay decreased, and hospitalization costs increased. CONCLUSIONS: In the United States, prevalence of CS in NSTEMI has increased 2-fold between 2000 and 2017, while in-hospital mortality has decreased during the study period. Use of coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention increased during the study period.

BACKGROUND: Clinical practice guidelines recommend antiplatelet and statin therapies as well as blood pressure control and tobacco cessation for secondary prevention in patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVDs). However, these strategies for risk modification are underused, especially in rural communities. Moreover, resources to support the delivery of preventive care to rural patients are fewer than those for their urban counterparts. Transformative interventions for the delivery of tailored preventive cardiovascular care to rural patients are needed. OBJECTIVE: A multidisciplinary team developed a rural-specific, team-based model of care intervention assisted by clinical decision support (CDS) technology using participatory design in a sociotechnical conceptual framework. The model of care intervention included redesigned workflows and a novel CDS technology for the coordination and delivery of guideline recommendations by primary care teams in a rural clinic. METHODS: The design of the model of care intervention comprised 3 phases: problem identification, experimentation, and testing. Input from team members (n=35) required 150 hours, including observations of clinical encounters, provider workshops, and interviews with patients and health care professionals. The intervention was prototyped, iteratively refined, and tested with user feedback. In a 3-month pilot trial, 369 patients with ASCVDs were randomized into the control or intervention arm. RESULTS: New workflows and a novel CDS tool were created to identify patients with ASCVDs who had gaps in preventive care and assign the right care team member for delivery of tailored recommendations. During the pilot, the intervention prototype was iteratively refined and tested. The pilot demonstrated feasibility for successful implementation of the sociotechnical intervention as the proportion of patients who had encounters with advanced practice providers (nurse practitioners and physician assistants), pharmacists, or tobacco cessation coaches for the delivery of guideline recommendations in the intervention arm was greater than that in the control arm. CONCLUSIONS: Participatory design and a sociotechnical conceptual framework enabled the development of a rural-specific, team-based model of care intervention assisted by CDS technology for the transformation of preventive health care delivery for ASCVDs.

Recent studies focusing on the prevalence, characteristics, and outcomes of primary heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are sparse. We sought to assess these using a nationally-representative population. We used the 2016-2018 National Inpatient Sample database to study the prevalence, characteristics, clinical risk profiles, morbidity, mortality, cost, and resource utilization among primary HFpEF and HFrEF hospitalizations with and without NAFLD. In the period from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2018, there were 3,522,459 admissions of patients aged ≥18 years with a diagnosis of primary HF. Of these, 82,585 (2.3%) hospitalizations had secondary diagnosis of NAFLD. Admissions with NAFLD and HFrEF were associated with higher rates of in-hospital mortality (aOR 1.84, CI 1.66-2.04, P < 0.001) compared to admissions of HFrEF without NAFLD. Similarly, hospitalizations with HFpEF-NAFLD were associated with higher rates of in hospital mortality (aOR 1.65 CI 1.43-1.9, P < 0.001) compared to HFpEF admissions without NAFLD. Pressors use, cardiogenic shock, AKI with or without dialysis use, cardiac arrest, LOS and hospitalization cost were higher in admissions of HFrEF and HFpEF with NAFLD compared to those without NAFLD. In-hospital mortality, was higher in primary HFrEF and HFpEF admissions with NAFLD compared to without NAFLD. Physicians must be aware of the worse clinical outcomes of HFrEF and HFpEF in patients with NAFLD. Further clinical research is needed to address the knowledge gap and treatment options available for the patients with HF and NAFLD.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major co-morbidity in patients with heart failure (HF). There are limited contemporary data characterizing the clinical profile, inhospital outcomes, and resource use in patients hospitalized for HF with co-morbid CKD. We utilized a nationally representative population to address the knowledge gap. We examined the National Inpatient Sample 2004 to 2018 database to study the co-morbid profile, in-hospital mortality, clinical resource utilization, healthcare cost, and length of stay (LOS) in primary adult HF hospitalizations stratified by presence versus absence of a diagnosis codes of CKD. There were a total of 16,050,301 adult hospitalizations with a primary HF diagnosis from January 1, 2004, to December 31, 2018. Of these, 428,175 (33.81%) had CKD; 1,110,778 (6.92%) had end-stage kidney disease (ESKD); and 9,511,348 (59.25%) had no diagnosis of CKD. Patients with hospitalizations for HF with ESKD were younger (mean age 65.4 years) compared with those without ESKD. In multivariable analysis, those with CKD had higher odds of inhospital mortality (2.82% vs 3.57%, adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.30, confidence interval [CI] 1.28 to 1.26, p <0.001), cardiogenic shock (1.01% vs 1.79% aOR 2.00, CI 1.95 to 2.05, p <0.001), and the need for mechanical circulatory support (0.4% vs 0.5%, aOR 1.51, 1.44 to 1.57, p <0.001) compared with those without CKD. In multivariable analysis, those with ESKD had higher odds of inhospital mortality (2.82% vs 3.84%, aOR 2.07, CI 2.01 to 2.12, p <0.001), need for invasive mechanical ventilation use (2.04% vs 3.94%, aOR 1.79, CI 1.75 to 1.84, p <0.001), cardiac arrest (0.72% vs 1.54%, aOR 2.09, CI 2.00 to 2.17, p <0.001), longer LOS (Adjusted mean difference 1.48, 1.44 to 1.53, p <0.001) and higher inflation-adjusted cost (Adjusted mean difference 3,411.63, CI 3,238.35 to 3,584.91, p <0.001) compared with those without CKD. CKD and ESKD affected about 40.7% of all primary HF hospitalizations from 2004 to 2018. The inhospital mortality, clinical complications, LOS, and inflation-adjusted cost were higher in hospitalized patients with ESKD compared with patients with and without CKD. In addition, compared with those without CKD, hospitalized patients with CKD had higher inhospital mortality, clinical complications, LOS, and inflation-adjusted cost compared with patients with no diagnosis of CKD.

BACKGROUND: There are limited data on the temporal trends, incidence, and outcomes of ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction-cardiogenic shock (STEMI-CS). METHODS: Adult (>18âyears) STEMI-CS admissions were identified using the National Inpatient Sample (2000-2017) and classified by tertiles of admission year (2000-2005, 2006-2011, 2012-2017). Outcomes of interest included temporal trends, acute organ failure, cardiac procedures, in-hospital mortality, hospitalization costs, and length of stay. RESULTS: In â¼4.3 million STEMI admissions, CS was noted in 368,820 (8.5%). STEMI-CS incidence increased from 5.8% in 2000 to 13.0% in 2017 (patient and hospital characteristics adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.45 [95% confidence interval {CI} 2.40-2.49]; Pâ<â0.001). Multiorgan failure increased from 55.5% (2000-2005) to 74.3% (2012-2017). Between 2000 and 2017, coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention use increased from 58.8% to 80.1% and 38.6% to 70.6%, whereas coronary artery bypass grafting decreased from 14.9% to 10.4% (all Pâ<â0.001). Over the study period, the use of intra-aortic balloon pump (40.6%-37.6%) decreased, and both percutaneous left ventricular assist devices (0%-12.9%) and extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (0%-2.8%) increased (all Pâ<â0.001). In hospital mortality decreased from 49.6% in 2000 to 32.7% in 2017 (aOR 0.29 [95% CI 0.28-0.31]; Pâ<â0.001). During the 18-year period, hospital lengths of stay decreased, hospitalization costs increased and use of durable left ventricular assist device /cardiac transplantation remained stable (Pâ>â0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In the United States, incidence of CS in STEMI has increased 2.5-fold between 2000 and 2017, while in-hospital mortality has decreased during the study period. Use of coronary angiography and PCI increased during the study period.

Heart transplant (HT) recipients represent a unique and vulnerable population in whom medium and long-term outcomes are significantly affected by the risk of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. The use of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) in this population remains debated. A retrospective analysis of the National Inpatient Sample data between 2009 and 2018 was conducted. Hospitalization data on patients who underwent HT, or who had a preexisting HT, and who received a new ICD were included (excluding the preexisting ICD). Outcomes assessed included inpatient mortality, length of stay, and inflation-adjusted costs. We explored temporal trends in ICD placement and mean length of stay, and predictors of ICD placement. Between 2009 and 2018, 22,673 hospitalizations were recorded for HT, during which patients either received a concurrent new ICD placement (n = 70 [0.31%]) or no new ICD placement (n = 22,603 [99.7%]). During the same period, 146,555 admissions were recorded in patients with a history of HT. ICD placement in patients with a preexisting HT was associated with significantly higher inflation-adjusted costs ($55,680.7 vs $17,219.2; p <0.001). Predictors of ICD placement in preexisting patients with HT included cardiac arrest during hospitalization (odds ratio [OR]:14.3 [3.5 to 58.6]), drug abuse (OR:6.0 [1.3 to 27.1]), and previous PCI (OR:6.0 [2.1 to 17.3]). In conclusion, ICD placement in patients with HT history was associated with significantly higher inflation-adjusted costs. In patients with HT history, factors predicting ICD placement included cardiac arrest at hospitalization, previous PCI, and drug abuse.
