Resumo

The diagnosis of heart failure (HF) has been refined in several steps in recent years, reflecting evolving diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) recently published a modified definition of HF in the 2021 heart failure (HF) guidelines. The impact of this new diagnostic algorithm on the prevalence of HF is not known. The aim of this study was to describe the contemporary prevalence of HF in a representative, completely phenotyped sample from the general population.
