Abstract

Introduction

Diastolic dysfunction (DD) is often linked to the development and persistence of atrial fibrillation (AF), but its impact on healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) in patients with or without AF is unclear.

Methods

Patients who received a transthoracic echocardiogram at our institution between 2010 and 2022 were included. DD was derived from the echocardiogram reports. HCRU included cardiac interventional, structural, surgical, and electrophysiology procedures, as well as diagnostic monitoring and imaging tests.

Results

A cohort of 157,043 patients (mean age 58 ± 18 years, 55 % women, 88 % White, 9 % with AF, 23 % with DD, LVEF 56 ± 8 %, BMI 30 ± 8 kg/m2) was retrospectively analyzed. The presence and severity of DD is associated with a proportional increase in HCRU, calculated as the mean annual number of cardiac procedures per year. For patients with no AF, the HRCU was 0.60 ± 1.02 in patients with no DD versus 0.93 ± 1.39 in those with any grade of DD (p < 0.001). Similar findings were seen in patients with AF (HCRU 1.08 ± 1.40 vs. 1.27 ± 1.64, in patients without versus with DD, p < 0.001). At lower grades of DD, the presence of AF is associated with higher HCRU, but this difference dissipates in patients with grade III DD (1.77 ± 2.37 vs. 1.67 ± 2.15, p = 0.42).

Discussion

DD is associated with higher HCRU in patients with or without AF.

Conclusion

DD significantly increases HCRU which is higher in the presence of AF. These data emphasize the real-world impact of DD on HCRU and highlight the need to prioritize DD diagnosis and treatment to improve patients' health and reduce cost.
舒张功能不全患者的心血管资源利用:回顾性队列分析
舒张功能障碍(DD)通常与房颤(AF)的发生和持续有关,但其对有或无房颤患者的医疗资源利用(HCRU)的影响尚不清楚。方法纳入2010年至2022年间在我院接受经胸超声心动图检查的患者。DD来源于超声心动图报告。HCRU包括心脏介入、结构、外科和电生理检查,以及诊断性监测和影像学检查。结果回顾性分析157043例患者(平均年龄58±18岁,女性占55%,白人占88%,AF占9%,DD占23%,LVEF 56±8%,BMI 30±8 kg/m2)。DD的存在和严重程度与HCRU的比例增加相关,HCRU以每年心脏手术的平均次数计算。对于无房颤患者,无DD患者的HRCU为0.60±1.02,而任何级别DD患者的HRCU为0.93±1.39 (p <;0.001)。AF患者的HCRU(1.08±1.40 vs. 1.27±1.64)与无DD患者的HCRU (p <;0.001)。在较低级别的DD中,房颤的存在与较高的HCRU相关,但这种差异在III级DD患者中消失(1.77±2.37 vs. 1.67±2.15,p = 0.42)。结论DD显著增加HCRU,在AF存在时HCRU更高。这些数据强调了DD对HCRU的现实影响,并强调了优先考虑DD诊断和治疗以改善患者健康和降低成本的必要性。
