Associação entre evolução da função cognitiva e mortalidade após a alta hospitalar em pacientes idosos com insuficiência cardíaca avançada

Abstract: 64 anos (68 ±7) e fração de ejeção < 0,45 (0,38 ± 0,06). Submetidos a testes cognitivos (digit span, digit symbol, letter cancellation, trail making A e B) e teste de caminhada de 6min, 4 dias antes da alta (T1) e 6 semanas após (T2), cujos desempenhos foram comparados pelo teste T. O valor prognóstico dos escores dos testes cognitivos foram analisados pela regressão logística e o valor de maior acurácia dos testes associado com o prognóstico determinado pela ROC curve. RESULTADOS: Após 24,7 meses, 17 (55%) pa… Show more

“…Decompensated heart failure in the elderly is characterized by more diastolic dysfunction, more worsening renal function,15 worse cognitive function,16 and a worse prognosis. Our results are compatible with those of the ADHERE study, which found younger age and ejection fraction in patients who required inotropic therapy 2.…”

“…The study demonstrated important cognitive impairment in elderly patients with advanced heart failure. 20 A moderate to severe cognitive decline was also observed in 70% of the patients aged ≥ 55 years undergoing HD. 21 At the Digits test, there was a statistical difference (p = 0.03) and the patients undergoing PD presented the worst performance.…”
