Hospitalized patients with heart failure: integrating electronic healthcare records and external outcome data

Heart failure is a common reason for hospitalization in the elderly and it is associated with significant mortality and morbidity. To facilitate epidemiological studies of heart failure, there is a need for high quality datasets to be made available to researchers. While several heart failure datasets have been established in Western countries, there is a paucity of data available from China. Understanding differences in patient populations and healthcare systems between China and other countries is important in providing optimal care. To help address this issue, we created a retrospective heart failure dataset using electronic health data collected from patients who were admitted to a hospital in Sichuan, China between 2016 and 2019. The dataset includes 168 variables for 2,008 patients with heart failure.

心力衰竭是老年人住院的常见原因，与显著的死亡率和发病率密切相关。为了促进心力衰竭的流行病学研究，有必要为研究者提供高质量的数据库。尽管西方国家已经建立了多个心力衰竭数据库，但来自中国的数据却极为匮乏。了解中国与其他国家在患者群体和医疗保健体系之间的差异，对于提供最佳护理至关重要。为此，我们利用2016年至2019年间收集自四川省某医院入院的心力衰竭患者的电子健康数据，构建了一个回顾性心力衰竭数据库。该数据库包含针对2,008例心力衰竭患者的168个变量。

背景概述

该数据集包含中国四川某医院2008名心衰住院患者的168项临床指标，整合了电子病历和28天/3个月/6个月随访数据，主要用于心衰再入院预测和跨国医疗比较研究，但作为单中心数据存在泛化性限制。
