The Background : Mortality rate of heart failure patients are increasing even they have a good treatment. Therefore, it should be possible to make a prognostic for chronic heart failure patients with use an easy parameter namely predice score. The aim of the study : To assess the ability of the predice score to predict mortality within 30 days in patients with chronic heart failure. The Method : We did this prospective research started from 1st July 2016 until 31st December 2016 with concerned chronic heart failure patients as many as 44 patients. We counted the association grade with use Man whitney U. The Result : The results showed that there was a signicant relationship between predice score and mortality (p = 0.004). The mean predice score in the living subjects was 11.77 (SD: 4.07) Meanwhile, the mean predice score of the subjects who died was 17.18 ( SD:2,85). The Conclusion: Predice Score can be used to predict 30-day mortality in chronic heart failure patients who experience worsening because it is statistically signicant (p<0,05).

Objective. Assesment of chronic heart failure (CHF) prevalence and differential treatment in Rostov Region based on retrospective and prospective evaluation. Materials and methods. Retrospective analysis of 3059 casehistories of CHF patients hospitalized in cardiology departments of Rostov Region in 2008. 745 patients prospective followup. Results. Inpatients demonstrate a 52% CHF prevalence with a mortality rate of 3%. Major CHF development factors (in 82% cases) were determined to be ischaemic heart disease and arterial hypertension. Optimal medical treatment with basic pharmacological groups of drugs was conducted in 82% of inpatients the number decreasing to 53% during a year after discharge.

Due to the high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and better treatment strategies, with increased survival, heart failure is a condition with increasing prevalence, especially in developed countries. Heart failure patients often present electrolytic disorders, the most frequent one being hyponatremia. The objective of the study was to evaluate the frequency of hyponatremia in patients with chronic heart failure hospitalized in the Internal Medicine Clinic of the Clinical Emergency Hospital of Bucharest and to assess the clinical and paraclinical correlations, as well as prognostic implications of hyponatremia in these patients. We performed an observational retrospective study on 400 chronic heart failure patients hospitalized between January 1st 2014 and August 31st 2015. From these patients, 60 patients have been diagnosed with hyponatremia (defined as a serum natrium [135 mEq/L) and represented our group of study. The values of the serum natrium at admission in the study group ranged between 110-132 mmol/L. Most patients had advanced heart failure, according to NYHA classes� classification. The proportion of patients discharged with persistent hyponatremia was 48.33%, lower than the patients discharged with corrected serum sodium (51.67%), indicating an effective treatment of hyponatremia during hospitalization. The mortality rate during hospitalization in patients with corrected hyponatremia was 8.33%, smaller than the mortality rate in patients with persistent hyponatremia despite the correct administration of hydroelectrolytic rebalancing treatment (18.33%). Persistent hyponatremia may be considered a marker of a poor prognosis in hospitalized heart failure patients.

BACKGROUND: Cardiac cachexia is considered as an ominous complication that possibly associated with the terminal stages of chronic heart failure as it consumes the protein-calories reserves of the patients.AIMS: The aims of this study were to identify the prevalence, level, and correlates of cardiac cachexia among Jordanian patients with chronic heart failure.METHODS: A cross-sectional design was employed. A convenient sample of 300 chronic heart failure patients was recruited from accessible chronic heart failure patients who regularly visit the cardiac care clinics at two different hospitals that represent two health sectors in Jordan. A self-developed instrument was used to collect the data for the purpose of this study.RESULTS: The mean of the total cachexia score of the sample was 5.88. Cardiac cachexia was detected in 58.7% (n= 176) about half of them were having mild cachexia. The prevalence of cardiac cachexia was 13.15%. There were statistically significant correlation between the total cachexia score and some variables that include the patients’ age, monthly income, and number of years since diagnosed as chronic heart failure patients; however, number of daily smoked cigarettes wasn’t significantly correlated with the total cachexia score.CONCLUSION: Cardiac cachexia has not been widely investigated yet. The findings of this study can be used as a baseline data since this study is the first of its kind conducted at the national and regional level. In addition, this study can be useful for determining effective therapeutic modalities that can be employed on behalf of those patients among the health care team; particularly nurses.
