Review Multicenter Study Observational StudyAssociation of anemia and renal dysfunction with in-hospital mortality among patients hospitalized for acute heart failure syndromes with preserved or reduced ejection fraction.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of anemia and renal dysfunction with in-hospital outcomes in acute heart failure syndromes patients with preserved or reduced ejection fraction. ⋯ Our findings demonstrate that anemia combined with renal dysfunction is not a risk factor for in-hospital mortality in patients with a preserved ejection fraction, whereas anemia is an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality risk in reduced ejection fraction patients regardless of renal dysfunction.
