Abstrakt: Background: The beta-blocker (BB) initiation in acute heart failure (AHF) patients is still controversial. Some show the benefit of BB employment in decreasing the mortality outcome. This study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of in-hospital and long-term outcomes of BB initiation in AHF hospitalized patients. We searched multiple databases examining the outcome of AHF patients who had administered BB as the therapy initiation. Primary outcomes were all-cause mortality, composite endpoint after BB initiation when hospitalized, and post-discharge all-cause mortality. The secondary outcomes were adverse events after in-hospital BB initiation, including hypotension and symptomatic bradycardia after BB initiation when hospitalization and rehospitalization.
Results: Eight cohort studies with 16,639 patients suffering from AHF and cardiogenic shock, with 9923 participants allocated to the early BB group and 6,713 patients in the control group. The follow-up durations ranged from 2 to 24 months. Early BB administration significantly reduced in-hospital composite endpoints (RR: 0.42; 95% CI (0.30-0.58); p < 0.001), in-hospital all-cause mortality (RR: 0.43; 95% CI (0.31-0.61); p < 0.001), discharge mortality (RR: 0.51; 95% CI (0.41-0.63); p < 0.001), and rehospitalization (RR: 0.57; 95% CI (0.44-0.74); p < 0.001). There were no discernible differences in in-hospital BB-related adverse events between the two groups (p = 0.13). Subgroup analyses conducted on AHF patients presenting with cardiogenic shock revealed no significant differences in in-hospital composite endpoint and in-hospital mortality, and similar results were shown in the naive BB population.
Conclusions: The BB initiation in AHF patients shows advantages in efficacy and safety outcome.
