Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the efficacy and major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)in elderly patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy-induced heart failure with reduced ejection fraction(HFrEF)treated with Sacubitril-valsartan at 3 years of follow-up.Methods:This was a single-center retrospective cohort study.The elderly patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy-induced HFrEF aged 60-85 years were diagnosed and treated in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2018 to January 2020.A total of 120 continuously included elderly HFrEF patients treated with sacubitril valsartan were enrolled as the observation group, and 120 age-, gender-and B-type natriuretic peptide-matched elderly HFrEF patients treated with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker(ACEI/ARB)were enrolled as the control group.Structure and function of the heart were detected at 1-year follow-up.The MACE was observed, including cardiogenic death, readmission due to heart failure worsening and malignant arrhythmia at 3-year follow-up.Results:During follow-up(23.5±11.6)months, the visit of 18 cases was lost.There were no significant differences in the age, medical history, blood pressure between the two groups( P>0.05). Follow-up results showed that the improvement was better in observation group than in control group as follows: the left ventricular ejection fraction(45.8±9.4)% vs.(40.7±8.5)%, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(56.5±8.3)mm vs.(59.2±7.3)mm, left ventricular end-systolic diameter(42.5±11.2)mm vs.(45.7±9.6)mm, left atrium inner diameter(49.1±8.7)mm vs.(51.2±7.7)mm, and left ventricular mass index(111.3±34.3)g/m 2vs.(119.7±31.5)g/m 2( t=4.41, 2.68, 2.38, 1.98 and 1.98, respectively, P<0.01 or 0.05). The rates of readmission due to heart failure worsening and the incidence of MACE were lower in the observation group than in the control group(21.7% or 26/120 vs.36.7% or 44/120, and 45.0% or 54/120 vs.71.7% or 86/120, χ2=6.54 and 17.55, P<0.05 or 0.01). In patients with the grade Ⅲ and Ⅳ New York Heart Association(NYHA)cardiac function, the incidence of MACE were lower in the observation group than in the control group(75.0% or 9/12 vs.100.0% or 14/14, χ2=5.10, P<0.05). Conclusions:Sacubitril-valsartan can improve cardiac structure and function, and decrease the incidence of MACE in elderly patients with HFrEF induced by ischemic cardimyopathy.
