Systolic blood pressure at admission and long-term clinical outcomes in patients hospitalized for heart failure.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

The study sought to investigate the association between admission systolic blood pressure (SBP) and 1-year clinical outcomes in patients hospitalized for heart failure (HF) and in subgroups.

Methods

This study was based on the China Patient-centred Evaluative Assessment of Cardiac Events Prospective Heart Failure Study, which prospectively enrolled patients hospitalized for HF in 52 hospitals from 20 provinces in China between August 2016 and May 2018. Patients were divided into four groups according to the quartiles of SBP at admission. The multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were fitted to examine the association between admission SBP and all-cause death and HF readmission within 1 year after the index hospitalization.
