Accurate epidemiological estimates of heart failure are crucial for appropriate resource allocation and prevention strategies.
Heart failure is a life-threatening syndrome with substantial morbidity and mortality and is a burden to patients, their carers, and health systems. Estimates of heart failure incidence and prevalence are difficult to generate. Accurate epidemiological estimates of heart failure, however, are crucial to ensure resources are appropriately and adequately allocated to treat patients with existing disease, and to inform prevention methods among those at risk.
