Abstract
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a frequent cause of hospitalization around the world and is associated with high in-hospital and post-discharge morbidity and mortality. This review summarizes data on diagnosis and management of AHF from the emergency department to the intensive care unit. While more evidence is needed to guide risk stratification and care of patients with AHF, hospitalization is a key opportunity to optimize evidence-based medical therapy for heart failure. Close linkage to outpatient care is essential to improve post-hospitalization outcomes.
