Study design details

• Study design:
  To assess the demographic and clinical characteristics of HF patients in real-world clinical settings using data processed, structured and analysed by Danny Platform.;
• Main study objective:
  To evaluate treatment patterns, comorbidities, and hospital outcomes for patients with reduced and preserved ejection fraction.; To highlight gaps in heart failure management and suggest potential improvements in patient care.
• Summary results:
  The analysis included 1,313 heart failure (HF) diagnosed patients from two cardiology hospitals, focusing on 413 hospitalized individuals. This study provides a comprehensive view of demographic and clinical characteristics for HF patients.; The study demonstrated epidemiological data, with an average patient age of 69.77 years. More than 50% of the hospitalized patients were male.; Additionally, ejection fraction (EF) data, a critical indicator of heart function, was available for 352 patients, showing that 68% had preserved EF (>50%), which aligns with global trends related to ageing populations and chronic diseases.; Comorbidity profiling revealed that the most common conditions among HF patients were hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and diabetes, with around 66% of hospitalized patients having two or more comorbidities.;
