摘要
Background Duration of recovery and long-term outcomes have not been well-described in a large cohort of patients with heart failure with recovered ejection fraction (HFrecEF) owing to nonischemic cardiomyopathy. The aim of the study was to characterize the duration of recovery and long-term outcomes of patients with HFrecEF. Methods and Results We performed a retrospective analysis of our institution's databases. Only patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy, a chronic HF diagnosis, and a previous left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≤35% who had a subsequent LVEF of ≥50% were considered to have recovery. Patients with an LVEF of ≤35% who did not recover served as the comparison group. Included were 2319 patients with an LVEF of ≤35%, of whom 465 (20% [18.4%-21.7%]) met the above criteria for recovery (HFrecEF group). Recovery in the HFrecEF group was temporary in most cases, with 50% of patients experiencing a decline in LVEF to <50% within 3.5 [interquartile range 2.4-4.9] years after the day of recovery. Age and sex adjusted death and hospitalization were lower in the HFrecEF group than the HFrEF group (HR 0.29 [interquartile range 0.20–0.41] for death and 0.44 [interquartile range 0.32–0.60] for HF hospitalization, P < .0001 for both). Longer recovery was associated with better survival, with patients spending >5 years in recovery (LVEF of ≥50%) displaying the highest survival rates (83% alive at 10 years after recovery). Survival after recurrence of LV dysfunction was longer for those whose recovery duration was >1 year. Conclusions Patients with nonischemic HFrecEF display a unique clinical course. Although recovery is temporary in most cases, patients with HFrecEF display lower mortality and hospitalization rates, with the more durable the recovery of LV systolic function, the longer survival can be anticipated.
