Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
... About 5 million people in the United States have some form of heart failure, and nearly 550,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. The risk of developing heart failure increases with age, and it is estimated that one out of every 10 people over the age of 65 will be diagnosed with heart failure. Tod ...
