Brief Summary

In the Middle East and the Gulf, the general population have high cardiovascular risks like diabetes, hypertension, smoking and obesity. The average age of a patient with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) event is relatively young compared to Western populations. Women are multiparous and the rates of consanguinity marriages are high in this region of the world. These risk factors and conditions result in heart failure. Great deal of knowledge is missing regarding the influence of these risk factors on heart failure presentation, the causes and management of heart failure in ambulatory patients in this region of the world.

Conditions

Heart Failure

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Quantifying the causes of heart failure in the ambulatory patients in the outpatient setting

  Number of participants with main reason due to heart failure from Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), Hypertension, Valvular, Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopathy, Congenital, Pregnancy / delivery related, or other reason to be specified

  Single time point at baseline upon inclusion (cross-sectional)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Measure investigations that heart failure patients undergo

  Up to 6 months before inclusion

• Measuring patient functional status in heart failure patients

  Single time point at baseline upon inclusion (cross-sectional)

• Relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and heart failure

  Single time point at baseline upon inclusion (cross-sectional)

• Measuring Management Gaps in heart failure patients

  Past 12 months upon inclusion

Other Outcomes (1)

• Quantifying the distribution of heart failure types

  Single time point at baseline upon inclusion (cross-sectional)
