Comorbidities, pharmacologic interventions, and mechanical interventions associated with mortality in isolated diastolic left heart failure: lessons from a national database
In the cohort studied, isolated diastolic left heart failure has a 5% mortality. Several comorbidities and interventions are associated with increased mortality with milrinone and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors being associated with decreased risk of mortality. When only admissions with survival to discharge are considered, older age and diuretics are associated with lower total hospital length of stay.
