Implication
HFrEF linked to higher in-hospital mortality in acute HF; leaves open whether EF phenotype guides targeted interventions.

Population
4,056 consecutive patients admitted for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) without exclusion criteria across 19 hospitals in Japan. Of 4,041 with documented LVEF, 43% had HFpEF, 19% HFmrEF, and 38% HFrEF. Median age was 80 years.
