National survey on the management of heart failure in individuals over 80 years of age in French geriatric care units
Background To evaluate the prevalence and management of heart failure (HF) in very old patients in geriatric settings. Methods Members of the French Society of Geriatrics and Gerontology throughout France were invited to participate in a point prevalence survey and to include all patients ≥80 years old, hospitalized in geriatric settings, with HF (stable or decompensated) on June 18, 2012. General characteristics, presence of comorbidities, blood tests and medications were recorded. Results Among 7,197 patients in geriatric institution, prevalence of HF was 20.5% ( n  = 1,478): (27% in acute care, 24.2% in rehabilitation care and 18% in nursing home). Mean age was 88.2 (SD = 5.2) and Charlson co morbidity score was high (8.49 (SD = 2.21)). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was available in 770 (52%) patients: 536 (69.6%) had a preserved LVEF (≥ 50%), 120 (15.6%) a reduced LVEF (< 40%), and 114 (14.8%) a midrange LVEF (40–49%). Prescription of recommended HF drugs was low: 42.6% (629) used Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors (ACEI) or Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARBs), 48.0% (709) β-blockers, and 21.9% (324) ACEI or ARB with β-blockers, even in reduced LVEF. In multivariate analysis ACEI or ARBs were more often used in patients with myocardial infarction (1.36 (1.04–1.78)), stroke (1.42 (1.06–1.91)), and diabetes (1.54 (1.14–2.06)). β blockers were more likely used in patients with myocardial infarction (2.06 (1.54–2.76)) and atrial fibrillation (1.70 (1.28–2.28)). Conclusion In this large very old population, prevalence of HF was high. Recommended HF drugs were underused even in reduced LVEF. These results indicate that management of HF in geriatric settings can still be improved.
Enquête nationale sur la prise en charge de l'insuffisance cardiaque chez les personnes de plus de 80 ans dans les unités de soins gériatriques françaises
Background: to evaluate the prevalence and management of heart failure (HF) in very old patients in geriatric settings.Methods: members of the French Society of Geriatrics and Gerontology throughout France were invited to participate in a point prevalence survey and to include all patients ≥80 years old, hospitalized in geriatric settings, with HF (stable or decompensated) on June 18, 2012. General characteristics, presence of comorbidities, blood tests and medications were recorded.Results: among 7,197 patients in geriatric institution, prevalence of HF was 20.5% (n=1,478): (27% in acute care, 24.2% in rehabilitation care and 18% in nursing home). Mean age was 88.2 (SD=5.2) and Charlson co morbidity score was high (8.49 (SD=2.21)). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was available in 770 (52%) patients: 536 (69.6%) had a preserved LVEF (≥ 50%), 120 (15.6%) a reduced LVEF (< 40%), and 114 (14.8%) a midrange LVEF (40–49%).

Contexte : évaluer la prévalence et la prise en charge de l’insuffisance cardiaque (IC) chez les patients très âgés en milieu gériatrique.Méthodes : les membres de la Société Française de Gériatrie et de Gérontologie de toute la France ont été invités à participer à une enquête de prévalence ponctuelle et à inclure tous les patients ≥ 80 ans, hospitalisés en milieu gériatrique, atteints d'IC ​​(stable ou décompensée) au 18 juin 2012. Les caractéristiques générales, la présence de comorbidités, les analyses de sang et les médicaments ont été enregistrés.Résultats : parmi 7197 patients en établissement gériatrique, la prévalence de l'IC était de 20,5 % (n = 1 478) : (27 % en soins aigus, 24,2 % en soins de réadaptation et 18 % en maison de retraite). L'âge moyen était de 88,2 ans (ET = 5,2) et le score de comorbidité de Charlson était élevé (8,49 (ET = 2,21)). La fraction d'éjection ventriculaire gauche (FEVG) était disponible chez 770 (52 %) patients : 536 (69,6 %) avaient une FEVG préservée (≥ 50 %), 120 (15,6 %) une FEVG réduite (< 40 %) et 114 (14,8 %) une FEVG moyenne (40-49 %). Français La prescription de médicaments recommandés pour l'IC était faible : 42,6 % (629) utilisaient des inhibiteurs de l'enzyme de conversion de l'angiotensine (IEC) ou des antagonistes des récepteurs de l'angiotensine (ARA), 48,0 % (709) des bêtabloquants et 21,9 % (324) des IEC ou des ARA avec des bêtabloquants, même en cas de FEVG réduite. Dans l'analyse multivariée, les IEC ou les ARA étaient plus souvent utilisés chez les patients atteints d'infarctus du myocarde (1,36 (1,04-1,78)), d'accident vasculaire cérébral (1,42 (1,06-1,91)) et de diabète (1,54 (1,14-2,06)). Les bêtabloquants étaient plus susceptibles d'être utilisés chez les patients atteints d'infarctus du myocarde (2,06 (1,54-2,76)) et de fibrillation auriculaire (1,70 (1,28-2,28)).Conclusion : dans cette importante population très âgée, la prévalence de l'IC était élevée. Les médicaments recommandés contre l'IC étaient sous-utilisés, même en cas de FEVG réduite. Ces résultats indiquent que la prise en charge de l'IC en milieu gériatrique peut encore être améliorée.
