Abstract

Background: Prediction of readmission and death after hospitalization for heart failure (HF) is an unmet need. Aim: We evaluated the ability of clinical parameters, NT-proBNP level and noninvasive lung impedance (LI), to predict time to readmission (TTR) and time to death (TTD). Methods and Results: The present study is a post hoc analysis of the IMPEDANCE-HF extended trial comprising 290 patients with LVEF ≤45% and New York Heart Association functional class II–IV, randomized 1:1 to LI-guided or conventional therapy. Of all patients, 206 were admitted 766 times for HF during a follow-up of 57 ± 39 months. The normal LI (NLI), representing the "dry" lung status, was calculated for each patient at study entry. The current degree of pulmonary congestion (PC) compared with its dry status was represented by ΔLIR = ([measured LI/NLI] – 1) × 100%. Twenty-six parameters recorded during HF admission were used to predict TTR and TTD. To determine the parameter which mainly impacted TTR and TTD, variables were standardized, and effect size (ES) was calculated. Multivariate analysis by the Andersen-Gill model demonstrated that ΔLIRadmission (ES = 0.72), ΔLIRdischarge (ES = –3.14), group assignment (ES = 0.2), maximal troponin during HF admission (ES = 0.19), LVEF related to admission (ES = –0.22) and arterial hypertension (ES = 0.12) are independent predictors of TTR (p < 0.01, χ2 = 1,206). Analysis of ES showed that residual PC assessed by ∆LIRdischarge was the most prominent predictor of TTR. One percent improvement in predischarge PC, assessed by ∆LIRdischarge, was associated with a likelihood of TTR increase by 14% (hazard ratio [HR] 1.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13–1.15, p < 0.01) and TTD increase by 8% (HR 1.08, 95% CI 1.07–1.09, p < 0.01). Conclusion: The degree of predischarge PC assessed by ∆LIR is the most dominant predictor of TTR and TTD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

This case report describes a 37-year-old female who was admitted to our Emergency Department because of shortness of breath. On physical examination, she had dyspnea and tachycardia and blood pressure was 80/50 mmHg with a pulsus paradoxus of 22 mmHg. Neck veins were distended, heart sounds were distant, and dullness was found on both lung bases. Her chest X-ray revealed bilateral pleural effusion and cardiomegaly. On both computed tomography and echocardiography the heart was of normal size and a large pericardial effusion was noted. The echocardiogram showed signs of impending tamponade, so the patient underwent an emergent pericardiocentesis. No infectious etiology was found and she was assumed to have viral pericarditis and was treated accordingly. However, when the pericardial effusion recurred and empirical therapy for tuberculosis failed, a pericardial window was performed. A typical staining pattern for mesothelioma was found on her pericardial biopsy specimen. Since no other mesodermal tissue was affected, a diagnosis of primary malignant pericardial mesothelioma was made. Chemotherapy was not effective and she passed away a year after the diagnosis was made. This case highlights the difficulties in diagnosing this uncommon disease in patients that present with the common finding of pericardial effusion.
