Abstract :

Introduction: Cardiac failure is a very commonly occurring end result of almost all structural as well as functional cardiac diseases and a complication of many cardiac,non cardiac and extra cardiac conditions.InIndia burden of CHF is higher than in western population. Objectives: To study relative prevalence of two different types of cardiac failure,i.e.heart failure with reduced ejection failure and HFNEF. To study prevalent causes and clinical profile of all patients with cardiac failure. Methodology:Adult patients admitted in our hospital during the period from july 2010 to dec 2011 with signs and symptoms of cardiac failure were included.Cardiac failure was diagnosed clinically based on Framingham criteria. Result & Observations: Prevalance of HFNEF was higher Cardiac conditions like IHD,Hypertenstion,DCM,&VHD are most common causes of heart failure in our study
