The Rise of PROs: What Traditional Risk Scores May Be Missing | JACC Baran
<p>Hosts Mitsuaki Sawano, MD, and Satoshi Shoji, MD welcome Dr. Kazuya Nagao, MD (Kyoto University) to discuss his JACC: Heart Failure study, “Multidimensional Patient-Reported Outcomes in Acutely Decompensated Heart Failure: Prognostic Implications in a Real-World Cohort.” Using JROADHF-NEXT, this study examined three different PRO tools—KCCQ, EQ-5D-5L LSS, and PHQ-9—in patients hospitalized with acute heart failure. The episode explores why PROs repeatedly appear in JACC, how patient-reported health status captures information not reflected in traditional clinician-derived risk scores, and why mental health and overall quality of life may provide important prognostic signals beyond standard clinical assessment.</p>

After PCI, What Matters Most? Heart Failure, Bleeding, or Recurrent MI? | JACC Baran
<p>Hosts Mitsuaki Sawano, MD, Shun Kohsaka, and Nobuhiro Ikemura welcome Dr. Takahiro Suzuki, MD to discuss his JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions study, “Nonfatal Adverse Events and Risk for Subsequent Mortality in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.” Using the multicenter Japanese JCD-KiCS PCI registry, the study examined how post-PCI nonfatal events—including heart failure hospitalization, recurrent acute coronary syndrome, and major bleeding—shape subsequent mortality risk. Among more than 10,000 patients undergoing PCI, heart failure hospitalization emerged as the most frequent adverse event and carried the strongest association with subsequent mortality, with a population attributable fraction suggesting it accounted for nearly one-fifth of the overall mortality burden after PCI. The episode explores why PCI follow-up may need to move beyond the traditional “ischemia versus bleeding” framework, how heart failure surveillance could become central to post-PCI care, and why endpoint design in cardiovascular trials may need to better reflect the unequal clinical weight of different adverse events.</p>

HFpEF and HFmrEF: Can KCCQ-12 Replace KCCQ-23? | JACC Baran
<p>Hosts Mitsuaki Sawano, MD, Kentaro Ejiri, MD, and Nobuhiro Ikemura, MD welcome Dr. Yasuhiro Hamatani, MD (Brigham and Women’s Hospital) to discuss his study, “Interchangeability of the KCCQ-12 and KCCQ-23 across >18,000 Participants Enrolled in 4 Large-Scale Trials of Heart Failure.” Using pooled patient-level data from TOPCAT, PARAGON-HF, DELIVER, and FINEARTS-HF, this study examined whether the shorter 12-item Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ-12) can reliably substitute for the more comprehensive KCCQ-23 in patients with HFmrEF and HFpEF. Across more than 18,000 participants, KCCQ-12 demonstrated extremely high correlation with KCCQ-23, comparable prognostic performance for cardiovascular death and heart failure hospitalization, and nearly identical estimates of treatment effect across multiple therapies and time points. The episode explores why patient-reported outcomes have become central to heart failure drug development, whether reducing questionnaire burden can improve implementation in trials and clinical practice, and how simpler digital health assessments may shape the future of patient-centered care in HFpEF and HFmrEF.</p>
