Epidemiology of Heart Failure
Prevalance
- Estimated 2005 prevalence in adults age 20 and older: 5,300,000 (about 2,650,000 males, and 2,650,000 females).
Incidence [1]
- Data from the NHLBI’s Framingham Heart Study indicate that;[2]
- Heart failure (HF) incidence approaches 10 per 1,000 population after age 65.
- 75% of heart failure cases have antecedent hypertension. About 22% of male and 46% of female myocardial infarction (MI) victims will be disabled with heart failure within following 6 years.
- At age 40, the lifetime risk of developing heart failure for both men and women is 1 in 5.
- At age 40, the lifetime risk of heart failure occurring without antecedent myocardial infarction is 1 in 9 for men and 1 in 6 for women.
- The lifetime risk doubles for people with blood pressure >160/90 mm Hg compared to those with blood pressure <140/90 mm Hg.
- A study conducted in Olmsted County, Minnesota, showed that the incidence of heart failure (ICD9/428) has not declined during two decades, but survival after onset has increased overall, with less improvement among women and elderly persons. [3][4]
