ABSTRACT
Cardiology providers and healthcare clinicians tackling heart failure (HF) face an escalating challenge: rising prevalence rates and widening disparities among populations. In this context, leveraging up-to-date and specialized data becomes paramount. Although the American Heart Association’s (AHA) Heart and Stroke Statistics provides a sweeping overview of cardiovascular health with a few pages dedicated to HF and cardiomyopathy, the Heart Failure Society of America’s (HFSA) HF Stats annual publication offers an up-to-date and in-depth look at multiple themes related to HF epidemiology, global trends, outcomes and much more. This article highlights the unique benefits of HF Stats, why providers and clinicians should want to utilize the report and its dedicated website, HFStats.org, and how the report contents can enhance clinical practice, research, and patient care.
