Aims: We studied the patient characteristics, intra-hospital outcomes and factors associated with intra-hospital mortality in patients admitted for Peripartum Cardiomyopathy (PPCM) in our centre using data from the Ilorin Heart failure Registry. Study design: Prospective Observational Methodology: All the 22 confirmed PPCM patients admitted between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2019 were recruited and followed up for intra-hospital outcomes. The primary outcome was all-cause intra-hospital mortality. Results: Intra-hospital death occurred in four out of 22 patients (18.2%). The mean age of all patients was 28.4 ± 4.8 years and it was similar in both survivors and patients who died (P=0.960). Majority of patients (14, 63.7%) presented in New York Heart Association Class IV. Mean duration of hospital stay was 11 + 5.7days which was similar between patients who died and those who survived hospital admission (9.0 ± 2.8 vs 11.4 ± 6.1, P=0.457). Median ECG heart rate was 120 (116-123) bpm which was similar between both groups. Factors associated with mortality were biochem ical parameters serum sodium and eGFR which were significantly lower among those who died (125.0 ± 4.1 vs 133.7 ± 2.5mmol/L, P= |
