Etiologies and predictors of readmission among obese and morbidly obese patients admitted with heart failure
Heart Failure Reviews2021 The relationship between severity of obesity and outcomes in heart failure (HF) has long been under debate. We studied index HF admissions from the 2013–14 National Readmission Database. Admissions were separated into three weight-based categories: non-obese (Non-Ob), obese (Ob), and morbidly obese (Morbid-Ob) to analyze hospital mortality and readmission at 30 days and 6 months.
Clinical correlates of hand-held ultrasound-guided assessments of the inferior vena cava in patients with acute decompensated heart failure
Echocardiography2019 Background: Accurately assessing volume status in acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF) can be challenging. Inferior vena cava (IVC) dynamics by echocardiography allow indirect assessment of volume status in these patients. Recently introduced hand-held ultrasound devices are promising. We aimed to describe the clinical correlates of volume status assessment using a hand-held ultrasound device in ADHF.
