RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is a challenging medical emergency with high mortality and its prevalence is increasing in India. There is paucity of data on ADHF in the country. METHODS: Indian College of Cardiology National Heart Failure Registry (ICCNHFR) is an on-going observational registry on ADHF contributed by 22 hospitals across India; and we present the in-hospital and 30-day outcomes of ADHF patients enrolled from August 2018 to July 2019. Major objective included capturing demographics, comorbid conditions, aetiology, prescription patterns and assessing clinical outcomes. RESULTS: Of 5269 patients (mean age: 61.90 ± 13.85 years) enrolled in this study, males were predominant (67.09%). Mean duration of hospitalization was 5.74 ± 4.74 days. Ischemic heart disease was the most common (75.44%) aetiology. Abnormal electrocardiogram readings were found in most patients (89.86%). LVEF of ˂40% was found in 68.29% of patients. In-hospital mortality rates were 6.98%. The 30-day cumulative mortality was 12.35% and 30-day rehospitalization rate was 7.98%. At discharge, all guideline-based medical therapy (GDMT) were prescribed only to 24.99% of patients and 23.72% adhered to the prescription until 30 days. Older age, high serum creatinine levels and poor LVEF contributed to high mortality and rehospitalization. CONCLUSION: Patients with ADHF were younger and predominantly males. Usage of GDMT in ADHF patients was low (24.99%) and the in-hospital mortality was high. Older age, high serum creatinine levels, poor LVEF contributed for 30-day mortality and rehospitalization. This data on ADHF, could help in developing strategies to improve outcomes for HF patients in India.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This real-world, observational, prescription event monitoring study was conducted to evaluate safety and efficacy of indigenous tenecteplase (TNK-tPA) in Indian patients presenting with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS: This is a multi-centric, observational, prescription event monitoring study. Data was collected for 7,668 patients from 1,307 investigator sites across India from January 2011 to February 2016. RESULTS: Overall, 76.71% patients were hypertensive, 47.97% patients were diabetic, 42.01% had dyslipidemia, 24.35% had ischemic heart disease and 40.82% patients were smokers. The overall rate for achieving clinically successful thrombolysis by TNK was 93.34%. Delayed administration of tenecteplase yielded lower success rate (84.66%) as against those patients who received tenecteplase within 3 hours of symptoms (94.34%). 93.2% patients had chest pain resolution after pharmacological fibrinolysis. Overall 91.1% patients had 50% resolution of ST elevation at 90 minutes and mean time for 50% ST resolution was 72.06 minutes. Overall 53 patients died (mortality of 0.69%) before discharge. The incidence of bleeding (excluding stroke) was 1.77%, any stroke without ICH was 0.18% and any ICH was 0.38%. CONCLUSION: The findings of this study further reinforce the safety and efficacy of indigenous TNK-tPA in Indian patients presenting with STEMI, including high-risk sub-groups. The study also highlights the importance of early reperfusion therapy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular diseases are leading cause of mortality and morbidity. There is an increasing prevalence of hypertension and dyslipidemia due to globalization and adoption of westernized dietary habits in India. These transitions are manifest in dietary patterns and health outcomes. OBJECTIVE: To study the dietary salt and fat intake among patients diagnosed with hypertension and dyslipidemia in India. METHODS: SCRIPT study was a pilot exploratory, cross-sectional, observational, descriptive, multi-center study. It was conducted across hospitals and clinics in five metro cities of India, represented into four regional zones. In each region (North, n = 113; East, n = 98; West, n = 83; South, n = 152), patients diagnosed with hypertension and dyslipidemia were enrolled in the study. Socio-demographic and treatment details were recorded. Participants were interviewed by a dietician and their dietary intake was assessed by a three-day recall of food item questionnaire/ food diary. RESULTS: Overall the mean total daily salt consumption was 10.9 grams. Region-wise, the mean daily salt consumption in North, East, West and South were 14.13, 9.81, 10.12 and 9.38 grams respectively. The daily salt consumption in the North was significantly higher than other regions (P=0.012). The daily consumption of saturated fats (total saturated fat, ghee and butter) in the North was higher and statistically significantly in comparison to West, South and East (P <0.05). Overall, fats contributed to 24.1%, proteins contributed to 12.7% and carbohydrate contributed to 63.2% of total energy per day. The percentage of fat and protein contributing to total energy per day was within the acceptable range. CONCLUSIONS: Our study documented higher dietary salt intake than that recommended in India. There is an urgent need to address the issue of high salt and saturated fat consumption. Nutritional strategies for reducing salt intake, saturated fat and balancing energy nutrients should be urgently applied in Indian hypertensive and dyslipidemia patients.
