Abstract
- Cardiovascular diseases are the main death causes in the modern world. Heart failure (HF) is the terminal stage of most cardiovascular diseases. The prevalence of HF is increasing in patients of older age groups. At the same time, the number of geriatric syndromes increases with age, one of which is malnutrition. Recent studies demonstrate the mutually aggravating effect of heart failure and malnutrition, and that the correction of malnutrition can improve the heart failure course. The introduction of screening and timely correction of malnutrition will reduce the hospitalization and mortality rates in geriatric patients with HF.
