Abstract

The guideline for acute heart failure syndromes (AHFS) was issued in 2006 from the Japanese Circulation Society committee and is now updating. The most important issue is to review periodically whether or not the guideline is truly available for real-world management. It has, however, not been well performed because we do not have the data of real-world. From this viewpoint, we are performing the multicenter prospective observational cohort study of AHFS in Japan. As of May 31, 2011, 3676 AHFS patients were enrolled Using the data from the registry, comparison between the recommended therapies by the guideline and the real-world management for AHFS in Japan will be analyzed and the gaps between them will be presented. On the basis of these data, we would like to suggest what a better guideline is for AHFS in Japan is.
