The aims of this study were to characterize hyponatremic hospitalized patients with HF and to clarify the relations between hyponatremia and detailed in-hospital outcomes in Japan. Among 4,837 hospitalized patients with HF enrolled in the Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Syndromes (ATTEND) registry, patient characteristics and in-hospital mortality in those with hyponatremia were examined. Hyponatremia (sodium <135 meq/l) was observed in 11.6% of patients. with hyponatremia were of similar age, included fewer men, and had a higher proportion of previous hospitalizations for HF compared to those with normonatremia. On admission, lower heart rates and blood pressures and higher brain natriuretic peptide levels were observed in patients with hyponatremia. During hospitalization, inotrope levels and mechanical device use were significantly higher in patients with hyponatremia. Rates of allcause and cardiac death were significantly higher in patients with hyponatremia, 15.0% and 11.4%, respectively, compared to 5.3% and 3.6%, respectively, in those with normonatremia. In hyponatremic hospitalized patients with HF, cardiac death accounted for 76.2% of all-cause death. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates that in Japan hyponatremia in patients hospitalized with HF is relatively common and is associated with a very high in-hospital mortality.

(Am J Cardiol 2013;111:1019e1025) It is known that hyponatremia, defined as a serum sodium concentration <135 meq/l, is a relatively common finding in patients hospitalized with heart failure (HF), with an incidence of 20% to 25%, 1e6 and it is among the most important predictors of short- and long-term mortality. 5,6 However, these data and analyses regarding hyponatremia were derived from North America and Europe populations, but not from Asian registries except Korea. 7,8 Accordingly, the Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Syndromes (ATTEND) registry, which is a prospective multicenter observational cohort study of patients hospitalized with HF in Japan, 9 provides a unique opportunity to examine the prevalence and prognostic value of hyponatremia and the a Internal Medicine, Cardiology, and Intensive Care Unit, Nippon Medical School Musashi-Kosugi Hospital, Kanagawa, Japan; b Center for Cardiovascular Innovation, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Illinois; c Division of Cardiology, Sensoji Hospital, Tokyo, Japan; d Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Nippon Medical School, Tokyo, Japan; e Department of Cardiology, Tokyo Women s Medical University, Japan; and f Department of Cardiology, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka, Japan.

Echocardiography was also performed on admission to evaluate for a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (40%). Blood chemistry tests were done on admission to measure blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, serum sodium, hemoglobin, C-reactive protein, total bilirubin, and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP). In-hospital mortality was defined as (1) death from any cause, (2) death from cardiac causes including sudden cardiac death and HF death, and (3) death from cerebral or vascular causes. Death was considered to be cardiac (defined as HF death, sudden death, or other cardiac death) unless a specific noncardiac cause was identified by each primary physician. The end point classification committee (2 experienced cardiologists who were not study investigators) reviewed the data and, if any problems were encountered, asked the primary physician to confirm the cause of death.

Finally, the committee categorized each event for use in the present analysis. The study was conducted on the basis of the Declaration of Helsinki and the Japanese ethical guidelines for clinical studies. Of the 4,842 subjects registered, 5 patients with missing serum sodium levels on admission or incomplete data were excluded, leaving 4,837 patients for analysis. Analyses were performed using SAS version 9.1 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, North Carolina). Data are presented as mean SD and as medians with interquartile ranges. Student s t tests were used to compare groups with respect to normally distributed continuous variables, and Mann- Whitney U tests were used for other variables. Chi-square tests were used to compare nominally scaled variables. To evaluate the influence of hyponatremia with respect to inhospital mortality, a logistic regression model was applied, and heterogeneity of the influence, or interaction, was evaluated in the model. Two-tailed p values <0.05 were considered to indicate statistically significant differences. All analyses were performed at an independent biostatistics and data center (STATZ Institute, Inc., Tokyo, Japan). Results In 4,837 hospitalized patients with HF, hyponatremia (<135 meq/l) was observed in 11.6% (n ¼ 561) (Table 1). The distribution of serum sodium levels is shown in Figure 1. Comparison of patient characteristics between patients with hyponatremia and those with normonatremia are listed in Table 1. Compared to those with normonatremia, patients with hyponatremia were of similar age (73 years), included slightly fewer men, less commonly had hypertensive heart disease, and had higher proportions of history of hospitalization for HF and

On admission, heart rates and blood pressures were significantly lower in patients with hyponatremia than in those with normonatremia. Plasma BNP levels were significantly (p ¼ 0.001) higher in patients with hyponatremia than in those with normonatremia. Impaired renal function and anemia were observed more commonly in hyponatremic hospitalized patients with HF. Before admission, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin II receptor blocker and calciumchannel blocker use was not different between patients with hyponatremia and those with normonatremia, but diuretic use was more common, especially thiazide diuretics and spironolactone, and b-blocker use was slightly higher in patients with hyponatremia (Table 2). During hospitalization, inotropes use was significantly higher and vasodilator use significantly lower in patients with hyponatremia. Nonpharmacologic management, such as cardiac resynchronization therapy, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, continuous hemodiafiltration, intra-aortic balloon pumps, percutaneous cardiopulmonary support, and left ventricular assist systems, were used more commonly in hyponatremic patients with HF, although the use of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation, intubation, and Swan-Ganz catheterization were not different between the 2 groups. In patients with hyponatremia, a significantly longer length of hospital stay was observed (Table 2). The all-cause death rate was significantly higher in patients with hyponatremia at 15.0% compared with 5.3% in those with normonatremia. All-cause death rates in patients with hyponatremia and those with normonatremia at 7 days after admission were 1.4% and 1.0%, respectively, and cardiac death rates were 1.4% and 0.8%, respectively. The 2 rates were not statistically different between patients with hyponatremia and those with normonatremia. Furthermore, cardiac death rates were also significantly higher in hyponatremic patients with HF, as shown in Figure 2. In hyponatremic patients with HF, cardiac death accounted for 76.2% of all-cause death, higher than in normonatremic patients with HF (68.0%). In patients with hyponatremia who died from cardiac causes, systolic blood pressure at admission, known as a powerful independent risk factor for HF death, was significantly lower ( mm Hg) than in patients with noncardiac causes of death ( mm Hg) (p <0.001). To evaluate the heterogeneity of the prognostic value of hyponatremia on admission with respect to all-cause and cardiac mortality, subgroup analysis was performed. As listed in Tables 3 and 4, there were interactions for age, C- reactive protein, and BNP in all-cause and cardiac death. Also, an interaction existed for serum creatinine regarding cardiac death. Given these findings, age, renal function, C- reactive protein, and BNP should be considered from the viewpoint of the clinical significance of hyponatremia in cardiac death. Discussion The present study clearly demonstrates that hyponatremic hospitalized patients with HF are in more critical condition, requiring more intensive care, and have a poorer prognosis in terms of cardiac death as well as all-cause death. In hospitalized patients with HF, previous studies have revealed the relation between serum sodium concentration and all-cause death, but not cardiac death. To our knowledge, the present study is the first registry report to clarify the clinical impact of admission hyponatremia on cardiac mortality, with much higher in-hospital mortality of 11.4% compared to 3.6% in normonatremic hospitalized patients with HF. In Japan, the mean length of hospital stay is 30 days, quite different from that of Western countries. In the Outcomes of a Prospective Trial of Intravenous Milrinone for Exacerbations of Chronic Heart Failure (OPTIME-CHF) study, in-hospital mortality during a mean 8-day hospital stay was 5.9% in hyponatremic patients with HF. 2 In the present study, 7-day mortality was 1.4%, relatively lower than that in the OPTIME-CHF study. In contrast, 30-day mortality in Japan, at 15.4%, might be relatively higher compared to that of the OPTIME-CHF study (i.e., about 10%). 2 However, the patient characteristics between the 2 studies were quite different; for example, the mean systolic blood pressure was 130 mm Hg in the present study compared to 114 mm Hg in the OPTIME-CHF study. Therefore, a simple comparison would be meaningless. It is known that hyponatremia on admission is independently associated with increased in-hospital mortality in acute emergency medical patients. 10 In the present study, 76.2% of hyponatremic hospitalized patients with HF died from cardiac causes. Chawla et al 11 demonstrated that the nature of the underlying illness, rather than the severity of hyponatremia, best explains mortality associated with hyponatremia, using data from 45,693 admitted patients. Taken together, the increased mortality is due mainly to hyponatremia in hospitalized patients with HF. The pathogenesis of hyponatremia in HF is multifactorial as follows: (1) Low cardiac output causes impairment of the kidneys ability to excrete diluted urine, (2) The decrease in cardiac output activates through baroreceptors the sympathetic nervous system and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone

From these findings, pharmacologic management of HF should be considered to prevent hyponatremia and also to appropriately treat hyponatremia once a patient is determined to be hyponatremic. Hyponatremia is well known as an independent risk factor in hospitalized patients with HF in Western countries. The present study has demonstrated higher mortality in hospitalized patients with HF with hyponatremia compared with normonatremia in Japan. 7 From the findings of Korean 7 and the present registries, it should be recognized that hyponatremia on admission is an important and universal risk factor in hospitalized patients with HF. It is also important to clarify how to prevent and treat hyponatremia in hospitalized patients with HF. In this respect, a vasopressin antagonist, tolvaptan, is an appropriate drug to address this issue, 12,13 although a large clinical trial, the Efficacy of Vasopressin Antagonism in Heart Failure Outcome Study With Tolvaptan (EVEREST) trial, could not demonstrate improved prognosis in patients hospitalized for worsening HF, which included just 8% with hyponatremia. 14 The role of vasopressin antagonists in hospitalized patients with HF with hyponatremia remains to be tested. Therefore, a prospective study using a vasopressin antagonist should be conducted for hyponatremic hospitalized patients with HF. 15 There were several limitations to the present study in terms of confirming the pathogenesis of hyponatremia. First, there were no data regarding diuretic doses, which are related to the severity of hyponatremia. Second, there were no supportive biochemical data regarding hyponatremia (e.g., concentration of arginine vasopressin). However, these issues are well known. 5 Another limitation of the present study was the lack of long-term follow-up data. However, the primary aim of the present study was to investigate the relation between hyponatremia and cardiac death in the short term. Regarding long-term assessment, further study is required. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates that in Japan hyponatremia in patients hospitalized with HF is relatively common and is associated with a very high inhospital mortality.
