Patients with heart failure not being diagnosed in primary care
22 May 2018
Only a quarter of patients with symptoms suggestive of heart failure are investigated and referred by GPs in accordance with NICE guidelines, a UK study has shown. Nearly 80% of heart failure patients were diagnosed in hospital. The investigators, from Imperial College, London, extracted data on patients diagnosed with heart failure between 1 January 2010 and 31 March 2013, using the Clinical Practice Research Datalink. This database contains electronic records from 7% of general practices in England.
