  • Heart failure affects approximately 500,000 Australians, with around 67,000 new diagnoses each year.¹
  • Heart failure rarely exists in isolation and is often linked to connected conditions such as kidney disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity and mental health conditions.²˒³
  • Nearly half of people with heart failure are also living with chronic kidney disease, which can lead to worse outcomes and more frequent hospitalisations.⁴
