Systolic Heart failure treatment withthe Ifinhibitor ivabradineTrial Heart rate reduction with ivabradine and health related quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure: results from the SHIFT study Ekman I, Chassany O, Komajda M, et al. Eur Heart J. 2011;32(19):2395-404 www.shift-study.com
Aim of the HQoL substudy To evaluate whether heart rate (HR) reduction with ivabradine is associated with increased HQoL in parallel to a reduction of primary outcomes in SHIFT METHOD Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) was used at baseline, 4, 12, and 24 months after randomization Ekman I, Chassany O, Komajda M, et al. Eur Heart J. 2011;32(19):2395-404 www.shift-study.com
KCCQ • Disease specific, 23 items,ranging from 0 to 100 (higher score = better HQoL) • physical limitation • symptoms (frequency, burden) • quality of life • social interference • self-efficacy • Clinical Summary Score (CSS): Mean of the physical limitation and total symptom domains scores • Overall Summary Score (OSS): CCS + quality of life and social limitation scores Ekman I, Chassany O, Komajda M, et al.

Conclusions • In symptomatic patients with systolic heart failure and elevated heart rate: • Lower HQoL is associated with increased risk for cardiovascular outcomes. • Elevated heart rate at rest is associated with lower HQoL. • Heart rate reduction with Ivabradine improves HQoL. • The magnitude of HR reduction with Ivabradine is directly related to the degree of improvement in HQoL.
