  1. 2/12/2020 Disclosures Caring for the Vulnerable and Underserved Heart Failure Patient None Lucas Zier, MD, MS Rachel Stern, MD February 21 st , 2020 Zuckerberg San Francisco General Zuckerberg San Francisco General 2 Learning objectives Understand the Challenges in Caring for Vulnerable and ▪ Underserved Heart Failure Patients Challenges in Caring for Vulnerable and Define Best Practices for Caring for Inpatient Heart ▪ Failure Patients Underserved Heart Failure Patients Describe key components of outpatient heart failure ▪ management Identify how systems of care can be built to support ▪ vulnerable patients with heart failure.

  2. 2/12/2020 Comparison of Total Heart Failure Visits by Site Audience Response Question FY 2016-2018 Safety net hospitals are, as a group, financially penalized in the following way for heart failure readmissions compared to non safety net hospitals in programs like the hospital readmissions reduction program: 1. Over penalized 2. Under penalized 3. No difference in penalties ZSFG Stanford UCSF Source: Vizient. Zuckerberg San Francisco General Zuckerberg San Francisco General Heart Failure Update 6 Humble Inquiry: “You Picked an 2017 Heart Failure Readmits compared to Peer Institutions Unsolvable Problem” 25% Social determinants ▪ - Homelessness and substance use lead to non-adherence Almost 50% 20% higher than LA People with heart failure are just sick County USC ▪ 15% - Readmission rate reflects co-morbidities we can’t change Inpatient: pressure to discharge as soon as patients can walk ▪ 10% - PCPs can titrate diuretics and neurohormonal blockade Outpatient: PCPs don’t have the expertise to manage 5% ▪ advanced heart failure 0% Aren’t readmissions correlated with decreased mortality? ▪ ZSFG Santa Clara LAC USC* Harbor UCLA* UCSF Med ctr Vizient Valley* Zuckerberg San Francisco General Heart Failure Update 7 Zuckerberg San Francisco General Heart Failure Update 8 2

  3. 2/12/2020 System-Wide Challenges Inpatient Care Transitions Outpatient • Varied adherence to • • Limited heart failure Antiquated best practices and appointment system expertise Best Practices for Inpatient guideline directed • Infrequent visits for a therapies • Varied adherence to high touch disease Management of Heart Failure • best practices PCPs managing HF with limited help Patients with a complex, outpatient disease were being managed with repeated hospital admissions Zuckerberg San Francisco General Heart Failure Update 9 Zuckerberg San Francisco General Inpatient Management Goals of Heart Failure Audience Response Question Heart failure patients should be discharged when the following criteria have been met: Decongestion Neurohormonal Blockade 1. No longer symptomatic from heart failure (Reduce Mortality) (Systemic Unloading) 2. Euvolemic 3. Initiated on guideline directed medical therapy Diuresis Guideline directed 4.

  4. 2/12/2020 Relationship between HF Length of Stay and Readmission Rate Inpatient Management Timeline • Long length of stay associated with increased rates • Short length of stay is associated readmission and mortality. Aggressive Diuresis with increased rates of readmission • Reason: these patients are • Reason: Patients not euvolemic on sick. discharge Internal data: most HF Diagnostics admissions shorter than national average, tight correlation between LOS and readmission rate Sud M, et al.

  5. 2/12/2020 Some require sequential nephron blockade Principles of Effective Diuretic Use Acetazolamide Chlorthiazide Metolazone ▪ Establish dose responsiveness ▪ Employ sequential nephron blockade if indicated Spironolactone Mannitol ▪ Set daily diuresis goals based upon: Eplerenone - Clinical Exam (IVC ultrasound exam) - Weight - I/Os - Labs Tolvaptan ▪ DIURESE TO EUVOLEMIA! Conivaptan Furosemide Bumetanide Torsemide Ethacrynic Acid Zuckerberg San Francisco General Zuckerberg San Francisco General Initiate diuresis by doubling the patient’s outpatient diuretic dose (give IV) Daily goal: Diurese the patient as rapidly and completely as possible without OR exceeding the plasma refill rate Administer 20-40 mg IV furosemide if diuretic naive Double the IV diuretic dose Q4-6 hours until patient responds to diuretics (i.e. patient is net negative 200-300 cc per hour) and add afterload reduction Extravascular Space with hydralazine or ACEI/ARB • Peripheral edema If the patient is not responsive to 160 mg IV furosemide or 4 mg IV bumex • Pulmonary edema then add 250-500 mg IV chlorthiazide to next diuretic bolus • Pleural effusions to assess responsiveness Plasma Refill Rate (4 L/day) If patient is not responsive to high dose loop diuretic and adjunctive thiazide then Intravascular Space initiate furosemide or bumex drip at furosemide 20 mg/hr or bumex 0.5 -1 mg/hr with chlorthiazide 500 mg IV Q6 +/- acetazolamide 500 mg IV Q12 • Jugular venous pressure • Ventricular filling pressures (S3) If patient is not responsive to maximal nephron blockade (bumex gtt @ 1 mg/hr, chlorthiazide 500 mg IV Q6, azetazolamide 500 mg Q12) then start a low dose inotrope and call renal for PUF Zuckerberg San Francisco General Zuckerberg San Francisco General 5

  6. 2/12/2020 Daily Diuretic Goals Euvolemia Severely volume overloaded  3-4L net ▪ ▪ JVP/IVC is flat and collapsing (intravascular euvolemia) negative ▪ No peripheral edema or crackles are present (extravascular euvolemia) Moderately volume overloaded  2-3L net ▪ ▪ The patient does not report orthopnea, or dyspnea (symptoms) negative ▪ Patient is pre-renal by labs or creatinine has bumped slightly Mildly volume overloaded  1-2L net ▪ negative Zuckerberg San Francisco General Zuckerberg San Francisco General Inpatient Management Goals of Heart Failure Inpatient Management Timeline Aggressive Diuresis Decongestion Neurohormonal Blockade (Systemic Unloading) (Reduce Mortality) Uptitrate ACEI/ARB (HFrEF) Uptitrate MRA Uptitrate BB (HFrEF) Diagnostics Diuresis Guideline directed Dialysis medical therapy Zuckerberg San Francisco General Zuckerberg San Francisco General 6

  8. 2/12/2020 Discharge Diuretics Early Follow-up Decreases Hospital Readmission ▪ Convert active IV diuretic dose to oral dose then reduce dose by one half to estimate maintenance, outpatient diuretic dose ▪ Approximate outpatient diet and fluid intake and monitor patient in the hospital for 24 hours ▪ If the patient is negative 500-1000 ml in the 24-hour period you have identified the maintenance, oral diuretic dose Early Follow-up = Within 7 days of discharge Hernandez et al.
