Results Ethics approval and informed consent are not required for register-based research in Denmark.Patients with incident HF were identified from the Danish HF Registry,Eligible for inclusion were all patients 50 to 84 years of age identifiable in the HF Registry between January 1, 2003, and December 31, 2012, who had reduced LVEF (≤40%).
