ABSTRACT
AIMS:
Hypoperfusion portends adverse outcomes in acute heart failure (AHF). The gradient between end-organ inflow and outflow pressures may more closely reflect hypoperfusion than mean arterial pressure (MAP) alone. The aim of this study was to investigate organ perfusion pressure (OPP), calculated as MAP minus central venous pressure (CVP), as a prognostic marker in AHF. METHODS ANDRESULTS:
The Sodium NItroPrusside Treatment in Acute Heart Failure (SNIP)-AHF study was a multicentre retrospective cohort study of 200 consecutive patients hospitalized for AHF treated with sodium nitroprusside. Only patients with both MAP and invasive CVP data available from the SNIP-AHF cohort were included in this analysis. The primary endpoint was to assess OPP as a predictor of worsening heart failure (WHF), defined as the worsening of signs and symptoms of heart failure leading to intensification of therapy at 48â h. One hundred and forty-six patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included [mean age 61.1 ± 13.5 years, 32 (21.9%) females; mean body mass index 26.2 ± 11.7â kg/m2; mean left ventricular ejection fraction 23.8%±11.4%, mean MAP 80.2 ± 13.2â mmHg, and mean CVP 14.0 ± 6.1â mmHg]. WHF occurred in 14 (9.6%) patients. At multivariable models including hemodynamic variables (OPP, shock index, and CVP), OPP at admission was the best predictor of WHF at 48â h [OR 0.91 (95% confidence interval 0.86-0.96), P-value = 0.001] with an optimal cut-off value of 67.5â mmHg (specificity 47.3%, sensitivity 100%, and AUC 0.784 ± 0.054). In multivariable models, including univariable significant parameters available at first bedside assessment, namely New York Heart Association functional class, OPP, shock index, CVP, and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, OPP consistently and significantly predicted WHF at 48â h.CONCLUSION:
In this retrospective analysis on patients hospitalized for AHF treated with sodium nitroprusside, on-admission OPP significantly predicted WHF at 48â h with high sensitivity.Palabras clave
