Only patients with diagnosis ofheart failure on discharge or death were included. Results. Out of 1351 screened we included 358 patients (52% males), aged 73 12 years. Hospitalization index was first hospitalization for heart failure in 41% of patients. On admission, 84% of patients presented with signs of heart failure,68% were in New York Heart Association class III, and 28% in class IV.Myocardial infarction was recorded in 22% angina pectoris in 34%, arterial hypertension in 46% Diabetes mellitus in 34% respiratory disease in 34%, and renal failure in 28% of patients. During hospitalization (11.6 8.1 days), 11%of patients died and during 12 weeks after discharge additional 7% of them.26% of patients were rehospitalized in twelve weeks after discharge. Almost all patients had electrocardiogram, chest X-ray and results of basic laboratory tests (full blood count, electrolytes, creatinine). Echocardiography report was found in 57% of patients.
