Adults With Congenital Heart Disease Hospitalized for HF at Higher Risk for AEs

Adults with heart disease Adults With Congenital are hospitalized for heart (HF) have nearly 2-fold adjusted odds of a length of stay (LOS) in-hospital mortality than adults heart disease, 2005, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) diagnosis for HF (N=203, heart disease was further into complex (n=82) or (n=457). Patients with complex diagnoses assigned to the complex heart disease group. primary outcome was any event (AE).

Background: Heart failure (HF) admissions in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) are becoming more common. Researchers compared in-hospital and readmission events among adults with and without CHD admitted for HF. Methods and Results: Researchers identified all admissions with the primary diagnosis of HF among adults in the California State Inpatient Database between January 1, 2005 and January 1, 2012. International Classification of Disease (ICD) codes identified the type of CHD lesion, comorbidities, and in-hospital and 30-day readmissions events. Adjusted odds ratio atrial septal defect in adults (AOR, 95% CI) was calculated after adjusting for admission year, age, sex, race, household income, primary payor, and Charlson comorbidity index. Of 203 759 patients admitted for HF, 539 had CHD other than atrial septal defect. Compared with patients admitted for HF without CHD, those with CHD were younger, more often male, and had fewer comorbidities as determined by Charlson comorbidity index. On multivariate analysis, CHD patients admitted for HF had higher odds of length of stay ≥7 days (AOR 2.
