Timing of heart failure development and clinical outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objectives

To investigate the clinical relevance of the timing of heart failure (HF) development on long-term outcome in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Materials and methods

A total of 1,925 consecutive AMI patients were divided into 4 groups according to the timing of HF development; HF at admission (group I, n = 627), de novo HF during hospitalization (group II, n = 162), de novo HF after discharge (group III, n = 98), no HF (group IV, n = 1,038). Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) defined as the development of death, re-hospitalization, recurrent MI or revascularization were evaluated.

Results

HF was developed in 887 patients (46.1%) after an index AMI. HF was most common at the time of adm
