Here, we sought to discern demographic and clinical predictors of ischemic workup in patients with newly diagnosed HF. Methods: A retrospective study of 200 consecutive patients with new-onset HF admitted to our safety-net hospital between 2011 and 2015 was performed. We developed a multivariate logistic regression model to analyze determinants of undergoing ischemic evaluation. Results: A total of 99 patients (49.5%) underwent ischemic workup, while 101 patients (50.5%) did not. The mean age of the cohort was 73.9 \u00b1 16, with 50% as male and 51% as White. In total, 41.5% of patients had HF with reduced ejection fraction, and 37% of patients had HF with preserved ejection fraction. Among the patients who underwent ischemic evaluation, 63.6% received nuclear stress testing, 24.2% received cardiac catheterization, 9.1% received stress echocardiography, and 3% received computed tomography angiography. Demographic and clinical factors such as sex, age, race, presence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, or obesity had no significant association with receiving ischemic workup (p &gt; 0.05). Patients with known CAD (OR 2.816, p = 0.015) and a higher social deprivation index (SDI) (OR 1.022, p = 0.003) were significantly more likely to receive an ischemic evaluation. Atrial fibrillation was significantly negatively associated with receiving ischemic workup (OR: 0.24; p = 0.001). Conclusions: In our single-center safety-net hospital analysis, known CAD and higher SDI were significant predictors of ischemic evaluation in patients with newly diagnosed HF. Multiple demographic features, including age, sex, race, and clinical features, including HF type, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes, had no significant correlation with ischemic workup.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm13237279","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,3]],"date-time":"2024-12-03T11:48:56Z","timestamp":1733226536000},"page":"7279","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Identifying Demographic and Clinical Determinants of Ischemic Workup in Patients with Heart Failure"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1200-3386","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kristen M.","family":"John","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra\/Northwell, Hempstead, NY 11549, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter","family":"Wenn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cardiology, HCA Brandon Regional Hospital, Brandon, FL 33511, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ofek","family":"Hai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Nassau University Medical Center, East Meadow, NY 11554, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9737-7266","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roman","family":"Zeltser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra\/Northwell, Hempstead, NY 11549, USA"},{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Nassau University Medical Center, East Meadow, NY 11554, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2104-7230","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amgad N.","family":"Makaryus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra\/Northwell, Hempstead, NY 11549, USA"},{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Nassau University Medical Center, East Meadow, NY 11554, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1421","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCRESAHA.121.318172","article-title":"Epidemiology of Heart Failure","volume":"128","author":"Roger","year":"2021","journal-title":"Circ.
