Validation of the ELAN-HF Score and self-care behaviour on the nurse-led heart failure clinic after admission for heart failure
AIM: To validate the predictive value of the European coLlaboration on Acute decompeNsated Heart Failure (ELAN-HF) score, and to assess the effect of self-care behaviour on readmission and mortality in patients after admission with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). DESIGN: Quantitative, pros...

description | AIM: To validate the predictive value of the European coLlaboration on Acute decompeNsated Heart Failure (ELAN-HF) score, and to assess the effect of self-care behaviour on readmission and mortality in patients after admission with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). DESIGN: Quantitative, prospective, single centre, cohort study. METHODS: N-Terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels were measured on admission and discharge, and were used together with clinical and laboratory parameters to calculate the ELAN-HF score. Patients were stratified into four risk groups (low, intermediate, high, very high) according to their ELAN-HF score. The performance of the ELAN-HF score was evaluated and compared to the original study. Self-care behaviour was assessed by the European Heart Failure Self-care Behaviour Scale (EHFScBS-9). Survival analysis was used to estimate the association between both scores and re-admission for HF and/or all-cause mortality within 180 days. RESULTS: 88 patients were included. The median age of the study population was 75 years (IQR 69–83), 43% was female. NYHA III/IV functional class was present at discharge in 68 patients (85%) and 27 patients (34%) had a left ventricular ejection fraction < 40%. Complete data and 180 day follow up was available for 80 patients. 55% reached the endpoint of readmission and/or all-cause mortality. There was a significant association between the ELAN-HF score and re-admission and/or mortality < 180 days (HR = 1.25, 95% CI 1.08—1.45, p = 0.003). The median EHFScBS-9 score was 68.1 (IQR 58.3 – 77.8). There was no significant association between the EHFScBS-9 score and readmission and/or mortality < 180 days (HR = 1.01, 95% CI 0.99—1.03, p = 0.174). CONCLUSION: This study confirms the validity and therefore the potential of the ELAN-HF score to triage patients with ADHF before discharge. Using this score may optimize the follow-up treatment on the nurse-led heart failure clinic in order to decrease readmission and mortality. Self-care behaviour was non-significantly associated with readmission and/or mortality in our study population. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This study has been registered with the ethics committee MEC-U (Nieuwegein, The Netherlands), registration nr: V.160999/W18.208/HG/mk. |
