The utility of heart failure registries: a descriptive and comparative study of two heart failure registries

Abstract: We found differences in the clinical characteristics of patients admitted to Spanish internal medicine wards for decompensated HF depending on inclusion in either the RICA or EAHFE registry.

“…In online supplementary , we describe the baseline characteristics of patients enrolled in Phase 2 and 3 trials 1–6,43 compared to registries in AHF 44–52 in which there was no eligibility restriction with reference to left ventricular ejection fraction or other requirement for ‘documented cardiac dysfunction’. As the table shows, some characteristics of patients in Phase 2 and Phase 3 trials showed lesser or greater degrees of similarity with those of registry patients (highlighted in green); however, there is no specific pattern showing that findings in Phase 3 trials are more similar to registry results than those in Phase 2 trials.…”

“…Overall proportions are presented for categorical variables; overall means for continuous variables were calculated by weighting each trial's mean by the trial's sample size. These overall characteristics were then compared with the characteristics of patients enrolled in AHF registries 44–52 …”

“…It should be noted that the definition of chronic CAD encompasses a wide spectrum of patients, and their outcomes are highly dependent on the clinical setting and entry criteria (hospitalized vs. ambulatory patients, inclusion of patients with HF, etc.). Trullas et al 27 showed that in the registry setting, even in patients with similar clinical characteristics, HF outcomes may significantly differ. Therefore, in the case of a complex and heterogeneous disease such as HF, the results of registries must be interpreted with caution.…”

“…Despite the acknowledged value of RWD there is still a lack of understanding of its scope in generating evidence for treatments in addition to RCTs. To our knowledge current usage of RWD for HF has not yet been systematically evaluated [ [10] , [11] , [12] ]. Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) member countries have the world's highest level of adherence to evidence-based chronic HF therapies, primarily in North America, Western Europe, and Japan [ 13 ] and are pioneering access and implementation of RWD for decision-makers and various stakeholders in healthcare [ 14 ].…”
