Temporal trends in guideline-recommended medical therapy after an acute heart failure decompensation event: an observational analysis from Generator Heart Failure DataMart by Antonio Gasbarrini, Giuseppe Patti, Filippo Crea, Giovanni Scambia, Domenico D'Amario, Vincenzo Valentini, Gianluigi Savarese, Alfredo Cesario, Jacopo Lenkowicz, Stefano Patarnello, Renzo Laborante, Agni Delvinioti, Andrada Mihaela Tudor, Chiara Iacomini, Antonio Iaconelli, Donato Antonio Paglianiti, Mattia Galli, Daniele Rodolico, Attilio Restivo, Giuseppe Ciliberti, Gaetano Rizzo, Emiliano Bianchini, Matteo Busti, Luca Sensini

“…Conversely, the prescription of furosemide at discharge (adjusted OR 2.25; 95% CI 95% 1.29 to 3.94; p<0.01) and a previous genitourinary infection (adjusted OR 4.02; 95% CI 1.67 to 9.68; p<0.01) were associated with higher risk of 30-day all-cause death and urgent rehospitalisation.Conclusions In our study, early adoption of guideline-recommended medical therapy is still limited, with a significant rise in SGLT2i prescriptions after January 2022 and a lower risk of the composite of all-cause death and urgent readmissions at 30 days restricted to the use of ACEi/ARB/ARNi.…”
