Clinical characteristics and risk factors of short-and mid-term quality of life and prognosis in elderly pa-tients with acute syncope

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognostic risk factors of elderly pa-tients with acute syncope.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for 130 elderly patients with acute syncope admitted to Dengzhou People′s Hospital between February 2020 and February 2021.The patients were examined for blood lipids,blood sugar,and blood pressure,and recorded for information on their medical history,demography,lifestyle,occurrence of end-point events(cardiogenic shock,death,second hospital admission,ad-verse cardiovascular events,revascularization,cerebral infarction,myocardial infarction,and arrhythmia)during the four-month follow-up after discharge.The clinical characteristics,short-and mid-term quality of life and risk factors of end-point events in elderly patients with acute syncope were analyzed.Results Sudden dizziness(63.9%),palpitations(54.6%),and limb weakness(50.0%)were the major clinical symptoms in these elderly pa-tients with acute syncope.The event-free survival ratesin the patients at 1,2,3,and 4 months after hospitalization were 100%(130/130),88.5%(115/130),75.4%(98/130),and 69.2%(90/130).Multivariate analysis showed that smoking OR(95%CI):1.521(1.275,2.470);diabetes OR(95%CI):2.055(1.376,2.471);obesity OR(95%CI):2.896(1.388,2.473);Hyperlipidemia OR(95%CI):3.254(1.397,2.488),physical inactivity OR(95%CI):3.835(2.990,4.560);abdominal obesity OR(95%CI):4.180(2.970,5.129),history of transient loss of consciousness(TLOC)OR(95%CI):4.841(2.669,6.241)were independent risk factors for the end-point events in elderly patients with acute syncope(P<0.05).Conclusion Elderly patients with acute syncope mainly present with symptoms such as sud-den dizziness,palpitations,nausea,and fatigue and are at higher risk of short-and mid-term adverse events.Chronic systemic diseases,unhealthy lifestyle habits and a TLOC historyare independent risk factors for adverse events in elderly patients with acute syncope after hospital discharge.
