ADMIRE-HF Study
Myocardial Iodine-123 Meta-Iodobenzylguanidine Imaging and Cardiac Events in Heart Failure Results of the Prospective ADMIRE-HF
(AdreView Myocardial Imaging for Risk Evaluation in Heart Failure) Study

Harish Chandna, MD,# Jagat Narula, MD, PHD,§ on behalf of the ADMIRE-HF Investigators
Objectives: The ADMIRE-HF (AdreView Myocardial Imaging for Risk Evaluation in Heart Failure) study prospectively evaluated iodine-123 meta-iodobenzylguanidine
(123I-mIBG) imaging for identifying symptomatic heart failure (HF) patients most likely to experience cardiac events .
Results: A total of 237 subjects (25%) experienced events (median follow-up 17 months). The hazard ratio for H/M 1.60 was 0.40 (p 0.001); the hazard ratio for
continuous H/M was 0.22 (p 0.001). Two-year event rate was 15% for H/M >1.60 and 37% for H/M <1.60; hazard ratios for individual event categories were as follows:
HF progression, 0.49 (p 0.002); arrhythmic events, 0.37 (p 0.02); and cardiac death, 0.14 (p 0.006).
