Heart failure mortality statistics Mortality rates in heart failure are high even for patients compliant with the best available treatments 1 ~50 % DIE WITHIN 5 YEARS OF DIAGNOSIS 2 When heart failure symptoms are stabilised by current treatments, it may seem that patients are doing well, but the neurohormonal imbalance underlying heart failure is still silently occurring, resulting in disease progression. 1 The impact of heart failure on individuals is significant, and the worldwide prevalence is high 1.

All heart failure patients, even those who are considered asymptomatic (NYHA class I) or mildly symptomatic (NYHA class II), are at high risk of dying 1 34 % OF NYHA CLASS I AND II PATIENTS DIED The neurohormonal imbalance that causes the disease to progress is present in all heart failure patients, even in those who are considered asymptomatic (NYHA class I) or mildly symptomatic (NYHA class II). 1-3 42 % OF NYHA CLASS III AND IV PATIENTS DIED 1.

Sudden death is the most frequent cause of cardiovascular (CV) mortality among systolic heart failure patients 1 * ~45 % OF CARDIOVASCULAR DEATHS ARE DUE TO SUDDEN DEATH* 1 Mildly symptomatic patients are at a higher risk of sudden death, but the overall risk of death increases with escalation of NYHA class. 1,2 *In NYHA classes II through IV; roughly 70% of patients studied were NYHA class II. 1.

Despite improvements in care, 1-year mortality rates for heart failure patients remain high 1 IN OF HEART FAILURE PATIENTS DIE WITHIN 1 YEAR OF DIAGNOSIS 1 Heart failure is a complex chronic condition exacerbated by neurohormonal imbalance and punctuated by acute episodes, leading to a spiral of deteriorating organ function and poor outcomes for patients. 2,3 1.
