Heart failure & cardiomyopathies
Heart failure in Europe: Guideline‐directed medical therapy use and decision making in chronic and acute, pre‐existing and de novo, heart failure with reduced, mildly reduced, and preserved ejection fraction – the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) EORP Heart Failure III Registry
