The impact of delirium on the prognosis of HF patients is currently controversial. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the prognostic significance of delirium in HF.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Relevant articles were systematically searched in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Embase based on the PRISMA guidelines. Studies that reported mortality and hospitalization-related outcomes in HF patients with or without delirium using raw or adjusted hazard ratio (HR) and odds ratio (OD) were included. Meta-analysis was then performed to evaluate the effect of delirium in HF patients. Outcomes of interest were all-cause mortality and events of the hospitalization.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Of the 1,501 studies identified, 7 eligible studies involving 12,830,390 HF patients (6,322,846 males and 6,507,544 females) were included in the meta-analysis. There were 91,640 patients with delirium (0.71%) and 12,738,750 patients without delirium (99.28%). HF patients with delirium had higher OR for in-hospital mortality (1.95, 95% CI\u2009=\u20091.30\u20132.91, <jats:italic>P\u2009<\/jats:italic>=\u20090.135), higher pooled HR for 90-day mortality (2.64, 95% CI\u2009=\u20091.06\u20131.56, <jats:italic>P\u2009=\u2009<\/jats:italic>0.215), higher pooled HR for 1-year mortality (2.08, 95% CI\u2009=\u20091.34\u20133.22, <jats:italic>P\u2009<\/jats:italic>=\u20090.004), and higher pooled HR for 30-day readmission rate (4.15, 95% CI\u2009=\u20092.85\u20136.04, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.831) than those without delirium.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Current evidence suggests that combined delirium increases the risk of HF-related mortality and hospitalization-related outcomes in patients with HF.
