Outcomes and complications of heart failure with iron deficiency anemia: a nationwide analysis

Heart failure is a pressing public health concern, affecting millions in the United States and projected to rise significantly by 2030. Iron deficiency, prevalent in nearly half of ambulatory heart failure patients, contributes to anemia and diminishes patient outcomes. In this study, we aim to eval...

Description
Summary:Heart failure is a pressing public health concern, affecting millions in the United States and projected to rise significantly by 2030. Iron deficiency, prevalent in nearly half of ambulatory heart failure patients, contributes to anemia and diminishes patient outcomes. In this study, we aim to evaluate the impact of iron deficiency anemia on acute heart failure hospitalizations outcomes. Utilizing the 2019 National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database, a retrospective observational study assessed 112,864 adult patients hospitalized with heart failure and 7,865 cases also had a concomitant diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia (IDA). Among 112,864 heart failure hospitalizations in 2019, approximately 7% had concomitant iron deficiency anemia (IDA). Heart failure patients with IDA exhibited distinct demographic characteristics, with females comprising 51.1% (
