Abstract:
Background There are few reports on the prevalence of different types of cardiomyopathy, clinical presentation, severity, short-term outcomes, and implementation of advanced heart failure treatment. This study aimed to assess the prevalence, clinical background of different types of cardiomyopathy and to identify the candidate for advanced treatment in a tertiary care cardiac center with many advantages Method A single-center retrospective cohort study included 1069 patients admitted to our center and diagnosed with cardiomyopathy during 2019 and 2020 Results Out of 1069 cardiomyopathy patients admitted and diagnosed at our center between 2019 and 2020, 62% had ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), 36% had dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), and 2% had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HOCM). ICM patients were older, showed a higher prevalence of both male gender and pilgrims, and they had more frequent cardiovascular risk factors compared to dilated cardiomyopathy group of patients. However, DCM patients with more severe heart failure symptoms (NYHA class III/IV), much worse LVEF, were subsequently considered deemed for aggressive diuretic therapy, and further advanced therapy (Sacubitril-Valsartan and device therapy) compared to ICM patients. ICM patients showed poor inhospital outcomes compared to DCM group of patients (0.05 and <0.001) for an indication for mechanical ventilation and in-hospital mortality, respectively). Increased age, presence of renal dysfunction and lower LVEF were found the independent predictors of in-hospital mortality among our studied patients Conclusion There are discrepancies between DCM and ICM patients. Although DCM patients were younger at age and had fewer cardiovascular risk factors, they presented with severe symptoms and dysfunction, hence more eligible candidates for advanced heart failure treatment, and finally showed a lower mortality rate. Increased age, presence of renal dysfunction and lower LVEF were found the independent predictors of in-hospital mortality.
