Complex evaluation of patients with chronic heart failure in association with diabetes mellitus type 2 (n=105) showed that the majority of patients (96,2%) had metabolic subcompensation of carbohydrate metabolism - HbA1c>7%. The results of assessing the severity of clinical symptoms according to the clinical evaluation scale, indicators of renal function, and hemodynamic parameters of the heart in the group of patients with chronic heart failure in association with type 2 diabetes mellitus with arterial hypertension + coronary heart disease were significantly different from the group of patients with chronic heart failure in association with type 2 diabetes mellitus also with arterial hypertension and chronic heart failure in association with coronary heart disease.Conclusion. The etiology of chronic heart failure in our study group is CHD and arterial hypertension, which have distinctive features depending on gender and age. The degree of clinical symptomatology manifestation is directly dependent on the functional class of chronic heart failure. The most frequent companions of chronic heart failure in association with type 2 diabetes mellitus are obesity and chronic kidney disease.
