BACKGROUND: Malnutrition is common in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Despite the increasing awareness, nutritional assessment and intervention may be underutilized in practice, needing a simple screening tool to identify patients at high nutritional risk. This study sought to determine the association of mid-upper arm circumference indexed to height (MUACi) with nutritional measures, exercise capacity, and clinical outcomes in HFpEF.
METHODS: Patients with HFpEF (n = 247) and controls with no HF (n = 240) underwent ergometry exercise echocardiography with simultaneous expired gas analysis. Patients with HFpEF were divided into two groups based on the median value of MUACi.
RESULTS: Compared to controls and HFpEFhighMUACi (n = 124), HFpEFlowMUACi (n = 123) had lower body mass index, waist circumference, and geriatric nutritional risk index. Despite similar cardiac structure and function at rest and during peak ergometry exercise, peak workload achieved and mechanical efficiency (peak workload relative to peak oxygen consumption) were more reduced in HFpEFlowMUACi than controls and HFpEFhighMUACi. During a median observation period of 385 days, 25 composite outcomes of all-cause mortality, HF hospitalizations, unplanned visits requiring intravenous diuretics, and intensifications of oral diuretics occurred. HFpEFlowMUACi had 11-fold and 2-fold increased risks of the outcome compared to controls and HFpEFhighMUACi, respectively [hazard ratio (HR) 10.8, 95 % confidence intervals (CI) 2.47-47.3, p = 0.002 and HR 2.54, 95 % CI 1.05-6.16].
CONCLUSION: These data suggest that MUACi may be a useful screening metric to identify patients with HFpEF at malnutrition risk in clinical practice to help guide more specialized nutritional assessment.
