ABSTRACT

Objective:

The social determinants of health (SDoH) account for 80%-90% of modifiable contributors to health outcomes for chronic diseases such as heart failure. Knowledge gaps exist on how SDoH influences hospitalization rates in women with heart failure. Our aim was to evaluate the relationship between the baseline SDoH status of women with heart failure with subsequent all-cause and cardiovascular hospitalization.

Methods:

This is a prospective observational longitudinal cohort study of women diagnosed with heart failure with 6-month follow-up. The subjects completed SDoH assessment by the Institute of Medicine. Monthly follow-ups were performed to assess for hospitalization events.

Results:

A total of 92 patients with at least 1 follow-up clinic visit were included. The mean age was 66 ± 15 years and 80% had nonischemic cardiomyopathy as the etiology of heart failure. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Classifications I-II were the most common (n = 66, 71.8%). In total, 51 patients (55.4%) had overall high-risk SDoH (4 or more SDoH domains at risk). By the 6-month follow-up, 22 (23.9%) patients were hospitalized for any cause; 8 patients (8.7%) were hospitalized for cardiovascular causes. There were no deaths. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, the high-risk SDoH group had a higher odds ratio for all-cause hospitalization (OR 5.31, 95% CI 1.59-17.73). In addition, Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire 12-item (KCCQ-12) scores, surrogate for quality of life, were worse in the high-risk SDoH group.

Conclusion:

SDoH adversely impacts hospitalizations and quality of life in women with heart failure. Future efforts for screening and interventions should evaluate the SDoH at all levels, including the individual health care provider, institutional, and national levels.
