Abstract
Heart failure (HF) remains a leading cause of hospitalization and mortality. Marine omega-3 fatty acid supplements (omega-3 s) have shown efficacy in decreasing sudden cardiac death and improving the left ventricle ejection fraction percent (LVEF%). In this review, we evaluated the effect of marine omega-3 fatty acid supplements (omega-3 s) on HF hospitalization, recurrent HF hospitalization, and cardiovascular mortality in patients with heart failure. We found that omega-3 supplementation did not reduce first HF hospitalization or cardiovascular mortality but did significantly reduce recurrent HF hospitalizations, as compared with placebo.
