National Trends in Arrhythmias and Heart Failure Related Mortality in the United States From 1999 to 2023: A CDC Wonder Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Arrhythmias are an important contributing cause of death in patients with heart failure (HF). Despite advancements in cardiovascular care, the burden of arrhythmia-related mortality in HF patients remains a significant public health concern. This study aims to evaluate national trends in arrhythmia-related mortality in HF patients from 1999 to 2023.

Methods

Mortality data for patients with arrhythmias (ICD-10 codes: I44.0-I49.9) and HF (ICD-10 codes: I11.0, I13.0, I13.2, I50.0, I50.1, and I50.9) was obtained from the CDC WONDER Database. Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) were calculated per 100 000 populations. Joinpoint regression was used to assess the annual percentage changes in AAMR.

Results

Between 1999 and 2023, arrhythmias and HF were responsible
