Abstract
Risk stratification in heart failure (HF) patients is an important element for management. There are several risk stratification models that can be used to predict the prognosis of patients with HF, such as Aaronson’s scale, CVM-HF (CardioVascular Medicine Heart Failure), the Seattle Heart...Keywords
