          Abstract

          Resumen Introducción y objetivo. El adecuado manejo en los pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca crónica (ICC) reduce su morbimortalidad y por tanto el número de reingresos hospitalarios. Numerosos estudios informan sobre su manejo en el ámbito hospitalario, mientras que en atención primaria son escasos. El objetivo es evaluar el grado de adecuación a la guía clínica de la Sociedad Europea de Cardiología en la ICC en los pacientes de atención primaria. Métodos. Diseño observacional descriptivo, de manejo, de utilización de medicamentos, tipo indicación-prescripción. Población y muestra: equipos de atención primaria de la zona básica de Casas Ibañez (Albacete). La población de estudio está formada por los pacientes con un diagnóstico de insuficiencia cardíaca crónica en grado II-IV de la New York Heart Association (NYHA), de un registro de 224 con insuficiencia cardíaca crónica, pertenecientes a 10 médicos de atención primaria. Se seleccionaron todos los pacientes diagnosticados de Insuficiencia Cardiaca Crónica 223 enfermos con afijación al estratos rural. Mediciones principales: se evalúa la adherencia a los fármacos recomendados en la guía clínica mediante 2 indicadores, uno global y otro para fármacos con mayor grado de evidencia (A1: inhibidores de la enzima conversora de angiotensina/antagonistas de los receptores de angiotensina II (IECA/ARA-II), β-bloqueantes (BB) y espironolactona). Resultados. Se estudian 223 enfermos, con una edad promedio de 78,4 años, de los cuales son mujeres el 53,1%. La hipertensión arterial (HTA) y la isquemia cardíaca causan el 64,7%. La comorbilidad promedio, excluyendo la ICC, fue de 2,9. El 40,4% están en grado III-IV de la NYHA. El Índice de Adherencia Global (diuréticos, IECA/ARA-II, β-bloqueantes, espironolactona, digoxina y anticoagulantes orales) y el de Adherencia a la Evidencia A1 (IECA/ARA-II, BB y espironolactona) fueron del 55,2 y del 44,6%, respectivamente. El 39,5% tiene una baja adherencia, solo el 12,9% de los pacientes exhiben una perfecta adherencia a los medicamentos con el mejor grado de evidencia, mientras que tener menos de 70 años, los antecedentes de isquemia, HTA e ingreso hospitalario son variables asociadas a mejor adherencia. Conclusión. Existe una infrautilización de medicamentos recomendados por la guía clínica para la insuficiencia cardíaca, sobre todo de aquellos con mejores evidencias para reducir la morbimortalidad.

          Abstract Introduction and objective. Proper management in chronic heart failure (CHF) patients reduces their morbidity as well as the mortality and therefore the number of hospital readmissions. Numerous studies report about their management in the hospital setting, while in primary care they are scarce. The objective is to evaluate the application of European Society of Cardiology clinical guidelines in the chronic heart failure patients in primary care setting. Methods. Observational descriptive design focusing on management, use of medications and indication-prescription. Population and sample: Primary care teams in the area of Casas Ibañez (Albacete). The study population consists of patients with chronic heart failure diagnosis classes from II to V according to the New York Heart Association (NYHA). Data were collected from a registry of 224 patients with chronic heart failure belonging to 10 primary care physicians. All patients diagnosed with Chronic Heart Failure (223 patients) belonging to the rural strata were selected. Main measurements: adherence to the drugs recommended in the clinical guideline is evaluated using 2 indicators, one global and the other for drugs with a higher degree of evidence (A1: angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors / angiotensin II receptor blockers (ACE Inhibitors/ ARBs), β-blockers (BB) and spironolactone). Results. 223 patients are studied, with an average age of 78.4 years, of which 53.1% are women. Arterial hypertension (AHT) and cardiac ischemia cause 64.7%. The average comorbidity, excluding CHF, was 2.9. 40.4% were class III-IV of the NYHA. The Global Adherence Index (diuretics, ACE Inhibitors / ARBs, β-blockers, spironolactone, digoxin and oral anticoagulants) and the Adherence to Evidence A1 (ACE Inhibitors / ARBs, β-blockers and spironolactone) were 55.2 and of 44.6% respectively. Only 12.9% of patients showed perfect adherence to medications with the higher degree of evidence while 39.5% had low adherence. Having less than 70 years, the history of ischemic heart diseases, AHT and hospital admissions are variables associated with better adhesion. Conclusion. There is an underutilization of medications recommended by the clinical guideline for congestive heart failure management, especially those with better evidence to reduce morbidity and mortality.

            Clinical epidemiology of heart failure.

            The aim of this paper is to review the clinical epidemiology of heart failure. The last paper comprehensively addressing the epidemiology of heart failure in Heart appeared in 2000. Despite an increase in manuscripts describing epidemiological aspects of heart failure since the 1990s, additional information is still needed, as indicated by various editorials.
