The Pre-Discharge Oxygen Uptake Efficiency Slope Predicts One-Year Cardiovascular Events in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Patients
(1) Background: Heart failure is a complex disease leading to functional disability. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is the gold standard in assessing aerobic capacity and formulating function-based prognostic stratification; however, patients with acute heart failure after medical treatment...

description | (1) Background: Heart failure is a complex disease leading to functional disability. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is the gold standard in assessing aerobic capacity and formulating function-based prognostic stratification; however, patients with acute heart failure after medical treatment usually remain with markedly reduced exercise capacity, leading to early termination of CPET with submaximal testing results. The current study aimed to assess the cardiorespiratory fitness and characteristics of CPET variables of patients after acute heart failure treatment and determine potential CPET variables with prognostic value. (2) Methods: We recruited patients during hospitalization after management of acute heart failure, and pre-discharge CPET was performed. All enrolled patients were followed for one year for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). (3) Results: 85 patients were enrolled, with average left ventricular ejection fraction of 30.52%, and peak oxygen consumption of 10.85 mL/min/kg at baseline. The one-year MACE was 50%. Oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) was a significant event predictor, with lower one-year MACE in those with OUES ≥ 1.25 (p < 0.001). Cox regression analysis showed a 5.421-fold increased risk of MACE in those with OUES < 1.25 (p = 0.004). (4) Conclusions: The current results suggested OUES is a significant prognostic indicator in patients with acute heart failure. This also emphasized the critical role of CPET in patients with heart failure for prognostic stratification. |
