[The Danish National Quality Project about heart failure indicates lack of reporting and treatment of the elderly].

Le résumé fourni par la source

The Danish National Quality Project about heart failure has improved care for the patients considerably by insisting on evidence-based treatment in hospitals and heart failure clinics. Regrettably, according to data there is marked underrepresentation of patients 75-year-old and older, and especially a lack of women in this age group in the project. This discrimination towards the elderly and especially towards elderly women could possibly be solved by out-of-hospital-screening for heart failure among these patients.
