Popis: Introduction: The use of aggressive fluid therapy in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who develop septic shock is controversial. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study of 334 patients with heart failure (HF) and septic shock admitted to a tertiary cardiovascular center between 01/2015 and 06/2018. For this study, ejection fraction (EF) was dichotomized into Results: A total of 133(40%) patients had HFrEF, and 201(60%) patients had HFpEF (see Table 1, baseline characteristics). Early goal direct fluid therapy and vasopressors were equally implemented in all patients with HF that developed septic shock. Outcomes: There was no difference in in-hospital mortality for patients with HFrEF that developed septic shock when compared to patients with HFpEF, 64(48%) vs 102(51%) p=0.6542. Patients with HFrEF had a higher incidence of cardiogenic shock 25(19%) vs 9(4.5%) p Conclusions: Once patients with HF develop septic shock, the mortality is similar for both HFrEF and HFpEF. However, complications such as cardiogenic shock and 30-day readmission are more common in patients with HFrEF. A more individualized treatment approach is needed for this population.
