Abstract 284: Length Of Stay In Index Hospitalization Of Decompensated Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction As A Factor For 30-day Readmission And 1-year Mortality
Abstract:Introduction:
Heart Failure is one of the leading causes of readmission in the United States. Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) accounts for a growing proportion of heart failure hospitalizations and accounts for approximately half of hospitalizations today.
