pubmed:abstractText |
An understanding of the life expectancy of patients with heart failure (HF) may assist in difficult treatment decisions such as placement of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator or initiation of end-of-life care. However, previous studies have focused on predicting shorter-term mortality and limited data currently exist to predict expected survival among hospitalized patients with HF.
