Few data are available on long-term drug therapy and its potential prognostic impact after Takotsubo syndrome (TTS). Aim of the study is to evaluate clinical characteristics and long-term outcome of TTS patients on Renin Angiotensin system inhibitors (RASi).
TTS patients were enrolled in the international multicenter GEIST (GErman Italian Spanish Takotsubo) registry. Median follow-up was 31 (Interquartile range 12-56) months. Comparison of RASi treated vs. untreated patients was performed within the overall population and after 1:1 propensity score matching for age, sex, comorbidities, type of trigger and in-hospital complications.
clinicaltrials.gov, NCT04361994, https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04361994
Of the 2453 TTS patients discharged alive, 1683 (68%) received RASi therapy. Patients with RASi were older (age 71 ± 11 vs 69 ± 13 years, P = .01), with higher prevalence of hypertension (74% vs 53%, P < .01) and diabetes (19% v s15%, P = .01), higher admission left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (41 ± 11% vs 39 ± 12%, P < .01) and lo...
