Other specific objectives include describing the in-hospital mortality after admission, to describe the content and the reason for re-admission, to assess adherence to evidence-based guidelines (recommended by guidelines), to measure indicators of quality of care and establish a national registry data to allow for comparison with international records of patients admitted with ADHF.
