Abstract
- The prevalence of heart failure (HF) is increasing in many regions of the world, particularly within the context of aging populations in many countries. The Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) sought to explore areas of global HF innovation with the goal of exchanging ideas and best practices internationally. The HFSA Annual Scientific Meeting included roundtable discussions focused on the challenges faced by each of the participating regions and sharing innovative solutions. Themes identified include the lack of high-quality region-specific HF registry data that is required to accurately define patient needs and to facilitate outcome metrics; the tension between providing care that is accessible to the patient vs. concentrating highly-specialized care within tertiary centers; the need to accredit and coordinate HF care across a spectrum of healthcare delivery centers within regions; opportunities to improve the prevention and timely diagnosis of HF to enhance population outcomes, especially in communities facing healthcare disparities; and the evolution of multidisciplinary team-based care, particularly in optimizing access to guideline-directed medical therapies. This article summarizes the major themes that emerged during the roundtable sessions.
