Background: Heart failure (HF) may coexist with non-cardiac comorbidities. Yet, while relevant, the impact of comorbidities on long-term HF re-hospitalizations (Re-Hosp) is not well established. Previous studies do reflect modern management, often report just all-cause Re-Hosp, or are based selected populations from randomizd trials. We investigated association Re-Hosp for HFafter discharge in a large, contemporary setting. Methods: Administrative hospital data (primary diagnosis) (Jan 1st...
