RESUMO
Aim of the study was to assess mortality and rate of repetitive hospital admissions on days 30, 90, 180, 360, of observation as well as prevalence of concomitant diseases in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). The register was formed in 41 centers of 20 cities of Russian Federation. Number of included patients with signs of chronic heart failure (CHF) was 2498. Data on 2404 was available for final analysis. Rehospitalization rate was 31, 11, 11, and 9.5% during 30 days, and during periods 31-90, 91-180, 181-360 days after discharge from hospital, respectively. Hospital mortality was 9%, 30 days and 1 year total mortality was 13 and 43%, respectively. Risk of death was most strongly affected by pneumonia, liver cirrhosis, and chronic kidney disease (mortality 49.5, 45.7, and 47.2%, respectively). Prognostic value of factors was ranked in the following order (descending): age, body mass index < 19 kg/m2, systolic blood pressure < 100 mm Hg, heart rate (HR) > 70 bpm, body temperature < 36.5 C. Each predictor was assigned weight of 1 point. Score 5 meant that risk of death with a high degree of probability approached 100%. Patients included into ORAKUL compared with those included in Euro HF register were more severely ill: in ORAKUL ejection fraction < 40% was observed 1.89 times more often, and more patients had "wet-cold" profile. Patients in ORAKUL had greater HR, smaller ejection fraction, lower glomerular filtration rate, and worse compliance to scientifically based treatment.
