Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of hyponatremia and the relationship between hyponatremia and prognosis of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) for in-hospital patients. Methods: A total of 515 consecutive in-hospital DCM patients treated in HF center of Fu Wai Hospifal from 2008-10 to 2013-10 were retrospectively studied. Hyponatremia was deifned as the serum level of sodium < 135 mmol/L at ifrst admission. The prevalence of hyponatremia and the relationship between hyponatremia and DCM prognosis were studied including the risk of in-hospital time and mortality, the rates of all cause death and HF worsening death after discharge. Surviving patients were followed-up by clinical or telephone visit until 2014-11 or until the death. Results: There were 134/515 (26.0%) patients suffered from hyponatremia at admission, the serum level of sodium was related to HF symptom duration, NYHA functional classiifcation, systolic blood pressure (SBP), left atrial diameter and total bilirubin level, allP<0.01. Compared with non-hyponatremia, the patients with hyponatremia presented longer in-hospital time(14.8±11.1) days vs (11.2±5.8) days and higher in-hospital mortality (18.7% vs 1.8%), bothP< 0.01. There were 483 survivors discharged and were followed-up for (30.7 ± 19.5) months, during that period, the rates of all cause death and HF worsening death were 26.5% and 21.9% respectively. The patients with hyponatremia had the higher rates of all cause death (47.7% vs 20.3%) and HF worsening death (44.0% vs 15.5%), bothP<0.01. Multiple Cox regression analysis showed that with adjusted HF history (> 6 months vs≤ months ), NYHA functional classiifcation (Ⅱ-Ⅳ), SBP (per 10 mmHg elevation), total bilirubin level (per 1 mg/dl change) and LVEDD (per 5 mm change), the hyponatremia at admission is still one of the important independent predictors for all cause death (HR=1.836, 95% CI (1.248-2.702),P<0.01 and HF worsening death HR=2.139, 95% CI (1.406-3.253),P<0.01 in DCM patients after discharge. Conclusion: Hyponatremia is a common electrolyte disorder for in-hospital DCM patients, it is related to longer in-hospital time and higher mortality; higher rates of all cause death and HF worsening death after discharge in DCM patients.
