About this study

Official title: Hypokalemia in Hospitalized Patients for Heart Failure in the Therapeutic Cardiac Failure Unit: Morbidity-mortality Impact

Hypokalemia is very common in heart failure patients. Deleterious effects have been report on the cardiovascular system. Most of the clinical data concerning this ionic trouble are based on post-hoc study and some findings seemed disjointed.

Read the detailed description

This study tried to describe hypokalemia impact during hospital stay in hospitalized patients with heart failure and particularly on mortality and re-hospitalization.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

    Measured: Month 3

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Death

    Percentage of death for any reason

    Measured: Month 3

  2. Re-hospitalization

    Percentage of re-hospitalization for congestive heart failure

    Measured: Month 3

  3. Length of stay

    Days spent at the hospital

    Measured: Month 3

  4. Incidence of hypokalemia

    Percentage of incidence during the stay of hypokalemia

    Measured: Month 3

  5. Prevalence of hypokalemia

    Percentage of initial prevalence during the stay of hypokalemia

    Measured: Month 3
