Summary

In 2018, the investigators evaluated the treatment of 236 patients with heart failure (with preserved or reduced ejection fraction) before and after hospitalization in our internal medicine unit (from 2016 to 2017). The investigators showed that patients, mainly elderly women with comorbidities, often had suboptimal heart failure treatment without an identified cause. The investigators tried, whenever possible, to optimize treatment before hospital discharge. Our objective is now to analyze the 4-year outcome of these patients, including re-hospitalization for heart failure or death.
