Description
Summary:Aim. Assessing the impact of buspirone hydrochloride on hospitalizations frequency in patients  with chronic heart failure (CHF) and mixed anxietydepressive disorder (MADD). Materials and methods.  The study involved 49 patients  with heart failure of ischemic etiology and MADD. Patients in Group 1 (n = 25) received buspirone hydrochloride (in the starting dose of 15 mg/day with a gradual (within 2 weeks) increasing to the effective (30 mg/day)) in addition to standard  CHF therapy and coronary heart disease (CHD). Patients in group 2 (n = 24) received standard  therapy of CHF and CHD. After 6 months, we evaluated hospitalizations frequency and duration in patients from both groups. Results. The risk of hospitalization for heart failure decompensation was significantly lower in patients  from group 1 compared with patients  from group 2 (HR 0.333, 95% CI 1,12-8,05, p = 0.035).Conclusions. Buspirone hydrochloride admission in addition to standard  therapy  is associated  with reduced risk of hospitalization for decompensation of chronic heart failure in patients with MADD.
