Causes of Fatigue in Patients with Heart Failure Donna Mancini, MD Columbia University New York, NY

Symptoms of CHF Fatigue Dyspnea

Fatigue in HF Impaired Cardiac Output Response with Skeletal Muscle Hypoperfusion Abnormal Vasodilation/Altered Endothelial Fn Skeletal Muscle Dysfunction Malnutrition/Cachexia Cytokine Activation Anemia Depression Sleep apnea Medications (ß blockers; overdiuresis)

Padeletti, Sleep Medicine 2008;1132 • CHF associated with Central and ObstructiveSleep Apnea in up to 40% of stable HF pts • 28 of 29 patients admitted with acute decompensated CHF had SDB • Patients with SDB have lower peak VO2 vs those without • Interventions associated with increase in VO2 such as CRT are also associated with decrease in SDB Cheyne Stokes- Central Sleep Apnea Padeletti, Sleep Medicine 2008;1132

Elements of Fatigue Psychological: Mental Weariness Physiologic: Physical inability Central Peripheral

VO2= O2 delivery-O2 extraction VO2= CO * (A-VO2 difference) Muscle Lung Heart VO2= O2 delivery-O2 extraction VO2= CO * (A-VO2 difference) O2 delivery: Cardiac Output Pulmonary Function Hemoglobin Concentration O2 Extraction: Muscle Oxidative Capacity Vasodilatory Capacity

Isokinetic Strength Testing Maximum Voluntary Contraction Fatigue Index Duration of a sustained contraction Endurance: multiple repetitions Leg muscle strength and endurance were measured using an isokinetic dynometer (the Cybex system). The resistance of the lever arm is automatically adjusted to the dynamic tension produced by the muscle throughout its range of motion. The device records torque during muscle contraction at a selected angular velocity while correcting for the gravity contribution. The dominant leg was tested. 5 maximal knee extensions and flexions were performed at 60 and 120 degrees. The patient then performed 25 rapid contractions at the 120 speed. The fatigue ratio was defined as the average of the last 3 repetitions over the first 3.

Qualitative Assessments of Fatigue Ratings of Perceived Fatigue -Borg Scale Scale of 6-20 corresponds to HR response to exercise Quality of Life Questionnaires Visual Analogue Scales

Decreased CO response Results in decreased skeletal muscle perfusion Early Lactic acidosis Fatigue r=0.64;p<0.0001 Lang Am J Cardiol 2007

Cardiac Output Response Weber, Circ 1982;65:1215

Skeletal Muscle in CHF Morphological Changes (reduction in muscle mass) Histological Changes (shift in fiber types) Biochemical changes: shift from oxidative to glycolytic metabolism (31P MRS)

Muscle Hypothesis Muscle as a Sensory Organ Atrophic Deconditioned Metabolically abnl Hypoxia Exercise Returning now to the original muscle hypothesis: Briefly, ergoreceptors are nerve muscle afferents which are sensitive to skeletal muscle work. Ergorecptor overactivation has been shown in patients with congestive heart failure. Continued activation of these receptors leads to the sensation of dyspnea and fatigue. We have shown that by selectively reconditioning the muscles of the lower extremities, the magnitude of dyspnea experienced is significantly reduced. This was achieved without changes in cardiac function or respiratory muscle strength. Thus by improving muscle function alone, easily achieved through rehab, one can improve symtoms though not necessarily change outcome. Afferents Breathlessness Fatigue

Nutrition and Exercise Nutrition forms the basis for human performance Food nutrients provide energy and regulate physiologic processes Inadequate nutrition can hinder performance Dietary Supplements may enhance performance

Nutrient Use During Exercise

GLYCOGEN METABOLISM IN CHF Accelerated glycogen utilization in animal heart failure models Reduced or low normal glycogen concentration in human heart failure skeletal muscle biopsies

POSSIBLE MECHANISMS OF ABNORMAL GLYCOGEN METABOLISM IN CHF: Reduced delivery of substrates due to reduced muscle perfusion Hormonal abnormalities -- elevated catecholamine levels Intrinsic alteration of skeletal muscle metabolism with increased glycolytic activity a. deconditioning b. inhibition of free fatty acid metabolism

PROTOCOL JACC1999;34:1807 Baseline: Day 1: Exercise performed in fasting state 60% protein 40% fat drink provided Glycogen Depleted: Day 2: Exercise protocol repeated Slowed Glycogen Utilization: Day 8: 60% carbohydrate, 30% protein, 10% fat drink provided Day 9: High fat breakfast (eggs, bacon, bagel) 3.5 hours later: Heparin 2000 U IV 4 hours later: exercise repeated

Exercise Protocol Maximal: incremental bicycle exercise using 25W workloads of 3 minutes duration with measurement of respiratory gases Submaximal: 75% of peak workload until exhaustion Supramaximal: 133% peak workload x 1 minute followed by 2 minutes rest; repeated until subject is unable to complete a full min of exercise

in Heart Failure Patients % of Heart Failure Patients With Anemia Anemia Is Common in Heart Failure Patients 16% Tang (N=2009)1 Prevalence varies with age, patient population, and definition of anemia. Anker, ELITE (N=3044)2 17% Ezekowitz, ICcodes(N=12,065)3 17% Mozaffarian, PRAISE (N=1130)4 20% 22% Al-Ahmad, SOLVD (N=6563)5 28% Herzog, Medicare ICD (N=152,584)6 30% Horwich, UCLA CM clinic (N=1061)7 Key Point: The presence of anemia compounds the mortality risk of other pathologic conditions, such as chronic kidney disease and heart failure. The authors analyzed claims records of 1.2 million patients in the 5% General Medicare Database identified in a 2-year (1996-1997) entry cohort. The impact of independent predictors of mortality was examined in a Cox regression model. The study population was 39% male and 61% female; 89% white, 7% black, and 3% other races; with 29% between ages 65 and 69, 28% between 70 and 74, 21% between 71 and 79, and 23% aged 80 and older. The authors concluded that, in Medicare patients, chronic kidney disease and anemia independently confer a 2-fold increased mortality risk and heart failure a nearly 3-fold increased mortality risk. 48% Kosiborod, Medicare (N=2281)8 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 % of Heart Failure Patients With Anemia 5.
