Predictors of 1y‐WRF in the Multivariate Analysis
| Odds Ratio | 95% CI | P Value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Age, y | 1.017 | 0.981 to 1.055 | 0.3605 |
| Hemoglobin, g/dL | 0.819 | 0.664 to 0.999 | 0.0491 |
| eGFR, mL/min per 1.73 m2 | 1.007 | 0.990 to 1.023 | 0.4303 |
| Plasma BNP, 100 pg/mL | 1.121 | 1.004 to 1.249 | 0.0421 |
| LVEF <50% | 2.219 | 1.025 to 5.087 | 0.0430 |
| Increase in loop diuretic dose, mg | 1.007 | 0.991 to 1.025 | 0.3947 |
Hemoglobin, plasma BNP, and eGFR values are at the time of discharge. Increase in loop diuretic dose refers to the increase in dose from the time of discharge to 1 year after discharge. BNP indicates B‐type natriuretic peptide; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; 1y‐WRF, worsening of renal function during the year after discharge.
