Abstract

Objective: To investigate the prognostic value of re-hospitalization - mortality of serum sST2 level at the time of hospital admission in patients with chronic heart failure. Subject and method: A total of 116 patients diagnosed as chronic heart failure treated at 103 Military Hospital and 19-8 Hospital  were collected from November 2019 to October 2022. Serum sST2 were quantified by ELISA at the time of hospital admission. Information for mortality and re-hospitalization from the patients were collected during a 6-month follow-up period. Result: The rate of re-hospitalization - mortality during the 6-month follow-up period was 37.9%. The area under the curve (AUC) of serum sST2 level in the prognosis of rehospitalization/mortality in the group with EF ≤ 40% was 0.718, p=0.006. In multivariable Cox regression analysis, Log (sST2) (HR = 4.33, p=0.044), Log (NT-proBNP) (HR = 2.90, p=0.011), BMI (HR = 1.4), p=0.004), were prognostic factors in heart failure patients with reduced EF. In univariate Cox regression analysis, sST2 (HR = 2.52, p=0.028), was an independent prognostic factor in heart failure patients with reduced EF. Conclusion: sST2 is a short-term predictor of re-hospitalization/mortality in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
