Abstract

Objective:To study the correlation between hypoalbuminemia and prognosis in aged patients with chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods:A total of 102 aged CHF patients with cardiac function of C or D grade were divided into hypoproteinemia group and normal control group according serum albumin level.The mean time in hospital,incidence of cardiac function D grade,mortality rate were analyzed between two groups.Results: The patients with hypoproteinemia occupied 52.9%.Compared with normal control group,the hypoproteinemia group had more D grade of CHF(29.2% vs.74.0%,P0.01)and longer time in hospital [(20.3±11.7)d vs.(29.7±19.2)d,P0.05).But there was no significant different in mortality rate between two groups(P0.05).Conclusion:.The severity degree of CHF is related to hypoalbuminemia,so must pay great attention for it.
