| description | Heart failure is a result of many cardiac diseases and the reason for about 20 percent of hospital admissions of elderly patients aged over 65.The objective of the study was establish influence of diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure and smoking to hospitalization of patients with heart failure. We performed a retrospective observational study of patients with CHF admitted to Cardiology Department of the Cantonal Hospital Zenica between April 2005 and April 2001. Age, sex and risk factors for diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure and smoking were evaluated. A total of 754 patients were treated , 78 (9%) of them having been with CHF: 35(44,87%) men and 43 (55,12%) women, without significant sex differences. Diabetes was presented at 32 (41%) patients with CHF, 7(9%) men and 25 (32 %) women (p>0,05). 32(41%) of patients with CHF suffered from diabetes mellitus,7 (9%) men and 25 (32%) women, 48(61%) were smokers, and 42 (54%) patients had high blood pressure. Diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure and smoking were significant factors for hospitalization of patients with CHF in this study whereas diabetes mellitus was a significant risk factor for female patinets. These data correspond to the data from the world references and once again they outline significance of treating risk factors for arteriosclerosis and hear failure. |
