"Heart Failure: Meeting the Challenges of Surveillance and Knowledge Translation in Resource-poor Settings"

Heart failure (HF) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in high income countries. Shortage of population based HF studies from Low and Middle Income countries (LMIC) make global prevalence estimates difficult. In this editorial we discuss the possibility of generating HF data in LMICs by init...
