Not accepted
You may be eligible if
Provide written informed consent
Age ≥18 years or legal age of majority if \>18 years in the participant's country of residence

Heart failure signs and symptoms at the time of hospital admission
Imaging evidence of mildly reduced or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) (40% or higher)
Elevated N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) ≥500 pg/mL or B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) ≥125 pg/mL for patients without atrial fibrillation (AF); or elevated NTproBNP ≥1500 pg/mL or BNP ≥375 pg/mL for patients with AF
