ABSTRACT
The impact of heart failure (HF) on postoperative outcomes is not completely understood. Our purpose is to investigate complications and mortality after noncardiac surgeries in people who had HF. In the analyses of research data of health insurance in, we identified 32,808 surgical patients with preoperative HF and 32,808 patients without HF undergoing noncardiac surgeries. We used a matching procedure with propensity score and considered basic characteristics, coexisting diseases, and information of index surgery between patients with and without HF. Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for complications and mortality after noncardiac surgeries in patients with HF were analyzed in multivariate logistic regressions. HF increased the risks of postoperative acute myocardial infarction (OR 2.51, 95% CI 1.99-3.18), pulmonary embolism (OR 2.46, 95% CI 1.73-3.50), acute renal failure (OR 1.97, 95% CI 1.76-2.21), intensive care (OR 1.93, 95% CI 1.85-2.01), and 30-day in-hospital mortality (OR 1.80, 95% CI 1.59-2.04). Preoperative emergency care, inpatient care, and injections of diuretics and cardiac stimulants due to heart failure were also associated with mortality after surgery. Patients with HF had increased complications and mortality after noncardiac surgeries compared with those without HF. The surgical care team may consider revising the protocols for perioperative care in patients with HF.
