Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Course of care in the Emergency Department (ED) and course of care in the inpatient hospital, use of diuretics (increase urine excretion) vasodilators (relax artey and veins) and inotropeic agents (increase the function of the heart) rate of death

    From admission to discharge from the hospital

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Data from patient demographics ( sex, age, gender, race)

    at patients admission

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

All consecutive adult patients admitted to an acute care hospital and treated actively for acute HF, where acute HF is defined clinically as a new onset with HF decompensation

You may qualify if:

  • Age greater than or equal to 18 years at the time of admission to the hospital
  • Received or is eligible to receive a principal hospital discharge diagnosis of HF
  • Decompensated HF is present as determined clinically by the patient care team

You may not qualify if:

  • HF is present as a co-morbid condition, but is not a principal focus of diagnosis or treatment during this hospitalization episode
