AIMS: Heart failure (HF) is the leading cause of hospitalisation in the elderly in France. Early rehospitalisations are common, often through an emergency department. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of a primary care-hospital coordination network, with interventions by coordination nurses (IDEC), on the rehospitalisations after a first hospitalisation for acute decompensation in frail elderly HF patients.
METHODS: From 01/10/2019 to 01/10/2021, 237 patients aged > 75 years with frailty criteria, hospitalised in 8 departments of 5 private or public hospitals in the Yvelines Sud health territory were followed by an IDEC (hospital visit, telephone contacts, home visit(s)) within 3 months of their return home. This prospective observational study analysed the rate of consultations to the emergency room, rehospitalisations (total and for acute HF), and the number of events avoided at 90 days after discharge.
RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 87 years, 54% were women, 68% had a left ventricular ejection fraction > 40%, and 70% had atrial fibrillation. Non-cardiac comorbidities were very frequent. At 3-month follow-up, mortality was 9.3% (22/237), only 27 patients (11.3%) consulted the emergency room for acute HF, and the rehospitalisation rate for HF was 19.8%, without difference according to left ventricular ejection fraction. A consultation to the emergency room or a rehospitalisation for heart failure could be avoided for 10% of patients.
CONCLUSION: This study suggests that a primary care-hospital coordination network with dedicated coordination nurses is useful for the management of very elderly frail patients following hospitalisation for heart failure, limiting visits to the emergency room and rehospitalisations.
