Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

KorAHF is a multi-center registry (prospective cohort) for acute decompensated heart failure patients in Korea.

The aim of this registry is to analyze several causes affecting prognosis and survival and to develop new strategies for managing acute decompensated heart failure.
