BackgroundNo reports explicitly examined the relationship between work defined as a certain type of social participation or role and the protective effect on the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF) by preventing frailty. Therefore, this study examined whether social participation through work before admission relates to future adverse events in HF patients aged ≥65 years, and whether each frailty domain mediates the association between work and prognosis as a second analysis of a multi-centered prospective study (FRAGILE-HF study).MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed 1,332 older patients with HF whose work status before admission to the hospital were investigated. We assessed the physical, cognitive, and social domains of frailty and performed causal mediation analysis to examine the mediating relationship of each frail domain between work status before admission and 1-year combined events (HF-related readmission and all-cause death).ResultsThe subjects’ median age was 81 years, and 56.9% (758/1,332) were male. Among the three domains of frailty, work before admission reduced only social frailty after adjusting for confounding factors (odds ratio: 0.505, 95% confidence interval: 0.364-0.701). Patients with work before admission had a significantly better prognosis (hazard ratio: 0.720, 95% confidence interval: 0.523-0.989). Only social frailty partly mediated the relationship between work status and combined events (p<0.05).ConclusionsWork status before admission is associated with 1-year combined events, in part through social frailty.
