National Rate of Tobacco and Substance Use Disorders Among Hospitalized Heart Failure Patients.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Several cardiotoxic substances impact heart failure incidence. The burden of comorbid tobacco or substance use disorders among heart failure patients is under-characterized. We describe the burden of tobacco and substance use disorders among hospitalized heart failure patients in the United States. METHODS:We calculated the proportion of primary heart failure hospitalizations in the 2014 National Inpatient Sample with tobacco or substance use disorders accounting for demographic factors. RESULTS:Of 989,080 heart failure hospitalizations, 15.5% (n?=?152,965) had documented tobacco (n?=?119,285, 12.1%) or substance (n?=?61,510, 6.2%) use disorder. Female sex was associated with lower rates of tobacco (odds ratio [OR] 0.72; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.70-0.74) and substance (OR 0.37; 95% CI, 0.36-0.39) use disorder. Tobacco and substance use disorder rates were highest for hospitalizations <55years of age. Native American race was associated with increased risk of alcohol use disorder (OR 1.67; 95% CI, 1.27-2.20) and black race with alcohol (OR 1.09; 95% CI, 1.02-1.16) or drug (OR 1.63; 95% CI, 1.53-1.74) use disorder. Medicaid insurance or income in the lowest quartile were associated with increased risk of tobacco and substance use disorders. CONCLUSIONS:Tobacco and substance use disorders affect vulnerable heart failure populations, including those of male sex, younger age, lower socioeconomic status, and racial/ethnic minorities. Enhanced screening for tobacco and substance use disorders in hospitalized heart failure patients may reveal opportunities for treatment and secondary prevention.

Project description:BackgroundOlder patients who are hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure have high rates of physical frailty, poor quality of life, delayed recovery, and frequent rehospitalizations. Interventions to address physical frailty in this population are not well established.MethodsWe conducted a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial to evaluate a transitional, tailored, progressive rehabilitation intervention that included four physical-function domains (strength, balance, mobility, and endurance). The intervention was initiated during, or early after, hospitalization for heart failure and was continued after discharge for 36 outpatient sessions. The primary outcome was the score on the Short Physical Performance Battery (total scores range from 0 to 12, with lower scores indicating more severe physical dysfunction) at 3 months. The secondary outcome was the 6-month rate of rehospitalization for any cause.ResultsA total of 349 patients underwent randomization; 175 were assigned to the rehabilitation intervention and 174 to usual care (control). At baseline, patients in each group had markedly impaired physical function, and 97% were frail or prefrail; the mean number of coexisting conditions was five in each group. Patient retention in the intervention group was 82%, and adherence to the intervention sessions was 67%. After adjustment for baseline Short Physical Performance Battery score and other baseline characteristics, the least-squares mean (±SE) score on the Short Physical Performance Battery at 3 months was 8.3±0.2 in the intervention group and 6.9±0.2 in the control group (mean between-group difference, 1.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.9 to 2.0; P<0.001). At 6 months, the rates of rehospitalization for any cause were 1.18 in the intervention group and 1.28 in the control group (rate ratio, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.66 to 1.19). There were 21 deaths (15 from cardiovascular causes) in the intervention group and 16 deaths (8 from cardiovascular causes) in the control group. The rates of death from any cause were 0.13 and 0.10, respectively (rate ratio, 1.17; 95% CI, 0.61 to 2.27).ConclusionsIn a diverse population of older patients who were hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure, an early, transitional, tailored, progressive rehabilitation intervention that included multiple physical-function domains resulted in greater improvement in physical function than usual care.
