CURSACK, Guillermo et al. ENMIENDA I: Decompensated heart failure registry. Insuf. card. [online]. 2015, vol.10, n.1, pp.19-35. ISSN 1852-3862.

Decompensated heart failure is a disease which has increased its prevalence as a result of increased heart failure (HF) in the world. Approximately 2% of the world population suffers from this disease rising to over 15% in those over 65 years. Decompensation occurs due to different causes depending on the type of treatment, monitoring and medical monitoring and clinical characteristics of admission to hospital. The absence of comprehensive and representative registry in Argentina generated challenges us to the realization of a registry enabling us to include in turn different associations (HF and anemia, HF and pregnancy, and HF with preserved and reduced ejection fraction).

Keywords : Registry; Heart failure; Decompensated; Ejection fraction; Anemia; Pregnancy.
