Abstract
FUNDAMENTO: La insuficiencia cardiaca (IC) es una enfermedad común con alta tasa de mortalidad. La anemia y la insuficiencia renal (IR), encontradas frecuentemente en portadores de IC, son asociadas a mayor severidad de la enfermedad cardiaca y peor pronóstico. OBJETIVO: Evaluar la prevalencia de anemia e insuficiencia renal, así como la asociación entre esos dos cuadros, en portadores de IC no hospitalizados. MÉTODOS: Se observaron a pacientes seguidos en la clínica de IC de un hospital universitario de julio de 2003 a noviembre de 2006. Se definió la anemia como niveles de hemoglobina abajo de 13 mg/dl para varones y de 12 mg/dl para mujeres. La función renal se evaluó por medio de la tasa de filtración glomerular (TFG), calculada por la fórmula simplificada del estudio MDRD (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease). RESULTADOS: Teniendo en cuenta los trescientos y cuarenta y cinco pacientes incluidos en este estudio, el 26,4% (n = 91) tenía anemia y el 29,6% presentaba insuficiencia renal de moderada a severa (TFG < 60 ml/min). La asociación entre anemia y mayor prevalencia de insuficiencia renal fue estadísticamente significante (el 41,8% vs el 25,2%; p = 0,005). Los pacientes en clase funcional III e IV presentaron mayor incidencia de anemia (el 39,0% vs el 19,4%; p <0,001) e insuficiencia renal (el 38,2% vs el 24,8%; p = 0,007). No se observó asociación entre anemia o insuficiencia renal e historia de hipertensión, diabetes, función sistólica o etiología de insuficiencia cardiaca. CONCLUSIÓN: La prevalencia de anemia e insuficiencia renal se elevó en esa población y se asoció con la severidad de la insuficiencia cardiaca (clases funcionales III e IV).
BACKGROUND: Heart Failure (HF) is a common disease with a high rate of mortality. Anemia and renal failure (RF) are often found in patients with HF associated with higher severity of the heart disease and a worse prognosis. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of anemia and RF, as well as the association between these two conditions, in non-hospitalized patients with HF. METHODS: Patients treated at the HF Outpatient Clinic of a university hospital were followed from July 2003 to November 2006. Anemia was defined as hemoglobin levels < 13 mg/dl for men and 12 mg/dl for women. Renal function was assessed by the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), calculated by the simplified formula of the MDRD (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease) study. RESULTS: Of the 345 patients included in this study, 26.4% (n = 91) had anemia and 29.6% had moderate to severe renal failure (GFR < 60 ml/min). The association between anemia and a higher prevalence of renal failure was statistically significant (41.8% vs. 25.2%; p = 0.005). The patients at functional class III and IV presented a higher incidence of anemia (39.0% vs. 19.4%; p <0.001) and renal failure (38.2% vs. 24.8%; p = 0.007). No association was observed between anemia or renal failure and history of hypertension, diabetes, systolic function or etiology of HF. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of anemia and renal failure was high in this population and was associated with the severity of the HF (functional classes III and IV).
