尽管自1990年代以来，描述心力衰竭流行病学方面的手稿有所增加，但正如各种社论所指出的那样，1仍然需要更多的信息。图1示意性地描述了心力衰竭的评估和处理。在一些方法学考虑之后，将讨论图1中指示的大多数问题(风险因素、病因、流行率、发病率、预后、预防)。被诊断为心力衰竭的患者的治疗管理超出了本文的范围，关于可能的诊断测试和确定或排除心力衰竭的策略的详细信息也不在本文的讨论范围内，尽管将讨论普遍存在的综合征的定义和分类。欧洲心脏病学会的指南和精选综述提供了有关心力衰竭的诊断和治疗管理的最新信息。2%w4%w5%
Despite an increase in manuscripts describing epidemiological aspects of heart failure since the 1990s, 1 additional information is still needed, as indicated by various editorials. w2 w3 The evaluation and management of heart failure is schematically depicted in fig 1. Following some methodological considerations, most issues indicated in fig 1 (risk factors, aetiology, prevalence, incidence, prognosis, prevention) will be discussed. The therapeutic management of patients diagnosed with heart failure is beyond the scope of this paper, as is detailed information about the possible diagnostic tests and strategies to establish or rule out heart failure, although the prevailing definitions and categorisations of the syndrome will be discussed. The guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology and selected reviews provide up to date information on the diagnosis and therapeutic management of heart failure. 2 w4 w5
