Introducción: Una estrategia que ha mostrado ser efectiva para promover el autocuidado en los pacientes con falla cardiaca es la formación de diadas y grupos que brinden apoyo de pares para favorecer el logro de metas individuales.Objetivo general: Determinar el efecto de un programa de paciente experto en falla cardiaca en los conocimientos relacionados con la adherencia al tratamiento y en la satisfacción. Método: Se realizó un estudio piloto descriptivo de corte transversal en pacientes con diagnósticos de falla cardiaca en una institución de cuarto nivel. El tamaño de la muestra correspondió a toda la población con los criterios de restricción (N: 20 sujetos). Se implementó un programa de paciente experto durante 6 meses y se midieron los desenlaces de nivel de conocimientos y satisfacción. Para la recolección de la información se utilizó un test de conocimientos sobre adherencia al tratamiento y una encuesta de satisfacción. La información se procesó a través del programa IBM SPSS Statistics 23.0, y se realizó un análisis descriptivo con distribución de frecuencias absolutas y relativas. Resultados: Más del 95% de los pacientes mostró mejoría significativa en el nivel de conocimientos y el 85% refirió el nivel de satisfacción global más alto (muy satisfechos), reflejado en la dimensión de fidelización y efectividad. Conclusiones: El programa del paciente experto en insuficiencia cardiaca se constituye en una intervención costo-efectiva que proporciona capacidades para ayudar a otros pacientes a adquirir autoconfianza y habilidades en el manejo de su condición de salud.  Introduction: One of the strategies that has shown improvement in self-care for patients with heart failure is the formation of dyads and groups to provide peer support and achieve individual goals.

Objectives: to determine the causes of ineffective observation and poor prognosis in patients undergoing ADHF, in real clinical practice and to consider the basics of the formation of specialized medical care for patients with heart failure (HF).Materials and methods: the study was conducted based on the City Center for the treatment of heart failure (center HF), N. Novgorod. The study consistently included 942 patients with heart failure (HF) at the age of 18 years and older who underwent ADHF and received inpatient treatment in center HF between March 4, 2016 and March 3, 2017. Based on the decisions of patients to continue outpatient monitoring in center HF, two groups of patients were distinguished: patients who continued to be monitored in center HF (group I, n = 510) and patients who continued to be monitored in outpatient clinics at the place of residence (group II, n = 432). The assessment of adherence to treatment, overall mortality, survival and re-admission to a depth of two years of observation was carried out. Statistical data processing was performed using Statistica 7.0 for Windows and the software package R.Results: all patients in the study groups had high comorbidity. Group 2 patients turned out to be statistically significantly older, more often had III functional class (FC) HF, lower the baseline test score of 6-minute walk, and higher the baseline clinical assessment scale. After 2 years of follow-up in group II, there was a significant deterioration in adherence to basic therapy of HF compared with group I. According to the results of multifactorial proportional risk Cox models, it was shown that observation of patients in the group 1 is an independent factor increasing the risk of overall mortality by 2.8 times by the end of the second year of observation. Survival after two years of follow-up was: in group I — 89.8 %, and in group II — 70.1 % of patients (OR = 0.3, 95 % CI 0.2 – 0.4; p1/2 < 0.001). After two years of follow-up, the proportion of re-hospitalized patients in group II was greater (78.0 % of patients) versus group 1 (50.6 % of patients, OR = 3.5, 95 % CI 2.6 – 4.6; p1/2 <0.001). The independent risk of re-hospitalization according to multinominal logit regression was 3.4 times higher in group II and 2.4 times for III – IV FC HF. Conclusions: the inclusion of patients with HF in the system of specialized medical care improves adherence to treatment, prognosis of life and reduces the risk of repeated hospitalizations. Patients of an older age and with an initially greater clinical severity refused specialized supervision in center HF.

Background: EMPEROR-Reduced trial provides promising evidence on the efficacy of empagliflozin adding to the standard treatment in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). This study aimed to investigate the cost-effectiveness of add-on empagliflozin vs. standard therapy alone in HFrEF from the perspective of the Asia-Pacific healthcare systems.Methods: A Markov model was constructed to simulate HFrEF patients and to project the lifetime direct medical costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALY) of both therapies. Transitional probabilities were derived from the EMPEROR-Reduced trial. Country-specific costs and utilities were extracted from published resources. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) against willingness to pay (WTP) threshold was used to examine the cost-effectiveness. A series of sensitivity analyses was performed to ensure the robustness of the results.Results: The ICERs of add-on empagliflozin vs. standard therapy alone in HFrEF were US$20,508, US$24,046, US$8,846, US$53,791, US$21,543, and US$20,982 per QALY gained in Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, and Australia, respectively. Across these countries, the probabilities of being cost-effective for using add-on empagliflozin under the WTP threshold of 3-times country-specific gross domestic product per capita were 93.7% in Taiwan, 95.6% in Japan, 96.3% in South Korea, 94.2% Singapore, 51.9% in Thailand, and 95.9% in Australia. The probabilities were reduced when shortening the time horizon, assuming the same cardiovascular mortality for both treatments, and setting lower WTP thresholds.Conclusion: Adding empagliflozin to HFrEF treatment is expected to be a cost-effective option among the Asia-Pacific countries. The cost-effectiveness is influenced by the WTP thresholds of different countries.

ObjectivesTo enhance adherence to cardiac rehabilitation (CR), a patient education programme called ‘learning and coping’ (LC-programme) was implemented in three hospitals in Denmark. The aim of this study was to investigate the cost–utility of the LC-programme compared with the standard CR-programme.Methods825 patients with ischaemic heart disease or heart failure were randomised to the LC-programme or the standard CR-programme and were followed for 3 years.A societal cost perspective was applied and quality-adjusted life years (QALY) were based on SF-6D measurements. Multiple imputation technique was used to handle missing data on the SF-6D. The statistical analyses were based on means and bootstrapped SEs. Regression framework was employed to estimate the net benefit and to illustrate cost-effectiveness acceptability curves.ResultsNo statistically significant differences were found between the two programmes in total societal costs (4353 Euros; 95% CI –3828 to 12 533) or in QALY (–0.006; 95% CI –0.053 to 0.042). At a threshold of 40 000 Euros, the LC-programme was found to be cost-effective at 15% probability; however, for patients with heart failure, due to increased cost savings, the probability of cost-effectiveness increased to 91%.ConclusionsWhile the LC-programme did not appear to be cost-effective in CR, important heterogeneity was noted for subgroups of patients. The LC-programme was demonstrated to increase adherence to the rehabilitation programme and to be cost-effective among patients with heart failure. However, further research is needed to study the dynamic value of heterogeneity due to the small sample size in this subgroup.

A insuficiência cardíaca (IC) é uma síndrome clínica sistêmica complexa em que a disfunção cardíaca ocasiona suprimento sanguíneo inadequado para atender as necessidades metabólicas dos tecidos. Objetivou-se analisar as características funcionais pulmonares e suas repercussões em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca de um Hospital Universitário da cidade de Fortaleza/CE. Pesquisa de campo, seccional, realizada no período de agosto de 2012 a novembro de 2013. A amostra foi composta por 20 pacientes portadores de IC (Classes II e III). Foram excluídos os pacientes que apresentaram alterações ósteomioarticulares, e os que participaram de programas de reabilitação. As avaliações consistiram em analisar as pressões inspiratórias e expiratórias máximas, o pico de fluxo expiratório e a espirometria. Na amostra pesquisada 60% (n=12) eram do sexo masculino, com média de idade de 55,3 ± 2,77 anos, 80% (n=16) eram casados, 55% (n=11) tinham como causa da IC a miocardiopatia dilatada e 40% (n=8) apresentaram fração de ejeção variando entre 36 ˫ 40%. Em relação às comorbidades apenas 30% (n=6) apresentaram diabetes, 90% (n=18) hipertensão e 40% (n=8) dislipidemia. Em relação à avaliação da musculatura respiratória, e da função pulmonar, observou-se que os valores médios foram menores significativamente quando comparados ao previsto, porém sem significância quando comparados entre as classes funcionais II e III. Houve maior prevalência de IC entre pacientes do sexo masculino, casados, em decorrência de miocardiopatia dilatada hipertensiva, com FEVE de 36 ˫ 40%. Estes pacientes tendem a reduzir à força muscular respiratória, o pico de fluxo e a função pulmonar. As classes funcionais II e III não apresentaram diferenças significativas em relação aos valores previstos em relação às variáveis analisadas. ANALYSIS OF FUNCTIONAL PULMONARY CHARACTERISTICS AND THEIR REPERCUSSIONS IN PATIENTS WITH HEART FAILURE ABSTRACT Heart failure (HF) is a complex systemic clinical syndrome in which cardiac dysfunction causes inadequate blood supply to meet the tissues' metabolic needs. The aim of this study was to analyze the pulmonary functional characteristics and their repercussions in patients with heart failure at a University Hospital in the city of Fortaleza / CE. Field research, sectional, performed from August 2012 to November 2013. The sample consisted of 20 patients with HF (Classes II and III). Patients who presented osteomioarticular alterations and those who participated in rehabilitation programs were excluded. The evaluations consisted of analyzing maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures, peak expiratory flow, and spirometry. In the studied sample, 60% (n = 12) were males, with a mean age of 55.3 ± 2.77 years, 80% (n = 16) were married, 55% (n = 11) had as causes to CI the dilated cardiomyopathy and 40% (n = 8) had an ejection fraction ranging from 36 to 40%. Regarding comorbidities, only 30% (n = 6) presented diabetes, 90% (n = 18) hypertension and 40% (n = 8) dyslipidemia. Regarding respiratory muscle evaluation and pulmonary function, it was observed that mean values were significantly lower when compared to predicted, but without significance when compared between functional classes II and III. There was a higher prevalence of HF among male patients, married, due to hypertensive dilated cardiomyopathy, with LVEF of 36 ˫ 40%. These patients tend to reduce respiratory muscle strength, peak flow, and lung function. Functional classes II and III did not present significant differences in relation to predicted values and variables analyzed.
