摘要:Heart failure (HF) is a devastating condition characterized by a high rate of mortality.[1] About 6.2 million individuals are grappling with the burden of HF in the United States (U.S).[2] Of this over 6 million individuals affected with HF, a higher proportion is made up of people older than 65 years.[3,4] More than 50% of patients hospitalized due HF are older than 75 years.[5] Seniors do not just account for the greater proportion of individuals affected by HF but also have a worse outcome compared to younger individuals with HF.
