文摘
Most analyses about HF patients are skewed to the elderly.
ASCEND-HF provided the chance to examine a broad age group of HF patients.
Death and rehospitalization risk decreases as age increases up to 55 years.
Death and rehospitalization risk increases after age 55.
Different interventions may be needed in different age groups to reduce risk.
