Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between frailty and readmission during vulnerable periods in elderly patients with chronic heart failure.Methods Using convenience sampling method,290 elderly patients with chronic heart failure admitted to Department of Cardiovascular,the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from December 2022 to August 2023 were selected as the research subjects.They were followed up for three months and surveyed using general information questionnaire,frailty scale,and Barthel index.Results Spearman correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between readmission during the vulnerable period and frailty(r=0.266,P＜0.05).The readmission rate during the vulnerable period was 28.6％,and the results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that frailty(OR=2.561,95％CI:1.409-4.654),age(OR=1.113,95％CI:1.067-1.161),and renal dysfunction(OR=2.903,95％CI:1.559-5.406)were independent risk factors for unplanned readmission during the vulnerable period in elderly patients with chronic heart failure.Conclusion There is a positive correlation between frailty and readmission during the vulnerable period in elderly patients with chronic heart failure.Frailty,age,and renal dysfunction are independent risk factors for decompensated admission events in vulnerable elderly patients with chronic heart failure.
