Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure Registry

This is an observational study called Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure, which aims to improve the care for patients hospitalized with heart failure. The program focuses on ensuring patients receive recommended treatments and counseling before leaving the hospital. Researchers will look at how many patients are readmitted to the hospital within 30, 60, and 90 days after discharge. You may be able to participate if you are 18 years or older and have been hospitalized with congestive heart failure. The study's status is currently unclear.
