Acute heart failure with systolic dysfunction in paediatric patients: aetiology, risk factors, and in-hospital prognosis
Acute heart failure with systolic dysfunction in children has an unfavourable prognosis, however most patients improved during hospitalization. In our study, cardiomyopathy aetiology predicted worse outcomes. In turn, infective aetiology, younger age, higher EF, and SpO2 were independent factors of better prognosis.
