Overview

Several risk factors may predispose to heart failure. These risk factors can be demographic, genetic, associated with lifestyle or medications.

Risk Factors

Common risk factors associated with heart failure include:

Risk factors for heart failure Prevention strategies
Sedentary habit Regular physical activity
Cigarette smoking Cigarette smoking cessation
Obesity Physical activity and healthy diet
Excessive alcohol intake General population: no/light alcohol

intake is beneficial, avoiding alcohol in Patients with alcohol-induced CMP

Influenza Influenza vaccination
Microbes (Trypanosoma cruzi, Streptococci) Early diagnosis, antimicrobial therapy
Cardiotoxic drugs (anthracyclines) Cardiac function and side effect monitoring, dose adaptation, change of chemotherapy
Chest radiation Cardiac function and side effect monitoring, dose adaptation
Hypertension Life style modification, antihypertensive drugs
Hyperlipidemia Healthy diet, statins
Diabetes mellitus Physical activities, healthy diet, SGLT2 inhibitors
Coronary artery disease Life style modification, statins
The above table adopted from 2021 ESC Guideline
