Abstract

AbstractLow blood pressure (BP) is associated with poor outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF). We investigated the influence of initial BP on the prognosis of HF patients at admission, and prescribing patterns of HF medications, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), and beta-blockers (BB). Data were sourced from a multicentre cohort of patients admitted for acute HF. Patients were grouped into heart failure reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and HF mildly reduced/preserved ejection fraction (HFmrEF/HFpEF) groups. Initial systolic and diastolic BPs were categorized into specific ranges. Among 2778 patients, those with HFrEF were prescribed ACEi, ARB, or BB at discharge, regardless of their initial BP. However, medication use in HFmrEF/HFpEF patients tended to decrease as BP decreased. Lower initial BP in HFrEF patients correlated with an increased incidence of all-cause death and composite clinical events, including HF readmission or all-cause death. However, no significant differences in clinical outcomes were observed in HFmrEF/HFpEF patients according to BP. Initial systolic (< 120 mmHg) and diastolic (< 80 mmHg) BPs were independently associated with a 1.81-fold (odds ratio [OR] 1.81, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.349–2.417, p < 0.001) and 2.24-fold (OR 2.24, 95% CI 1.645–3.053, p < 0.001) increased risk of long-term mortality in HFrEF patients, respectively. In conclusion, low initial BP in HFrEF patients correlated with adverse clinical outcomes, and BP < 120/80 mmHg independently increased mortality. However, this relationship was not observed in HFmrEF/HFpEF patients.
