ABSTRACT
AIMS:
To identify baseline parameters longitudinally influencing overall health-related quality of life (HRQoL), physical function and mental health 1 year later in patients with chronic heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). METHODS ANDRESULTS:
We performed post hoc analyses of the randomized aldosterone in diastolic heart failure (Aldo-DHF) trial, including 422 patients with HFpEF and NYHA class II or III. Overall HRQoL, measured by the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ), physical functioning and mental health, both measured by the Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36), after 12 months were predicted in correlation analyses and multivariate regression analyses with continuous values and worst versus three better HRQoL quartiles as dependent variables. The mean age of the study population was 66.8 ± 7.6 years, 52.4% were female, and 86.0% had NYHA class II. All HRQoL variables at 1 year were predicted by their respective baseline values (all P < 0.001), which were also the best variables to predict lowest versus higher HRQoL quartiles (all P < 0.001). For overall HRQoL, six-minute-walking-distance (P = 0.009), Borg-score (P = 0.001), coronary heart disease (P = 0.036) and SF-36 role-emotional (P = 0.005) independently predicted one-year-outcome, while depression diagnosis (P = 0.044), self-reported health status (P = 0.023) and PHQ depression (P = 0.001) were only significant predictors when excluding MLHFQ total score at baseline. In logistic regression analyses, only SF-36 role-emotional (P = 0.016) independently predicted overall HRQoL group status at follow up. For physical functioning, Borg-score (P ≤ 0.001), 6 min walking distance (P = 0.005), coronary heart disease (P = 0.009), and SF-36 vitality (P = 0.001) were significant independent predictors, also when excluding baseline physical functioning. Low SF-36 vitality (P = 0.021) and presence of coronary heart disease (P = 0.027) independently predicted a patient's membership in the lowest quartile 1 year later. For mental health, SF-36 physical functioning (P = 0.025) and HADS anxiety (P = 0.046) were independent predictors, while self-rated fatigue and poor performance (P = 0.033) and SF-36 vitality (P = 0.008) only served as significant predictors when excluding mental health at baseline. HADS anxiety (P = 0.009) also served as independent predictor of a patient's group status after 1 year.CONCLUSION:
Overall HRQoL, physical functioning, and mental health of HFpEF patients 1 year later are mainly influenced by their respective baseline values. Other self-rated baseline parameters also showed independent effects while objective severity measures had limited predictive value.Palavras-chave
