NOT ALL HOSPITALIZED HEART FAILURE PATIENTS ARE THE SAME
Garrick C. Stewart, MD, MPH
PDF5 pages398 KB
Heart failure (HF) affects over 26 million people globally and is becoming more prevalent due to an aging population and improved care for acute cardiac conditions. Hospitalization is a critical juncture for HF patients, often linked to increased mortality and diminished quality of life. The document emphasizes the lack of recent successes in clinical trials for hospitalized patients with acute decompensated HF, attributing this to patient diversity, varying treatment backgrounds, and social determinants of health. It also notes disparities in care and outcomes based on socioeconomic factors.
