Heart failure (HF) is predominantly a disorder of the elderly. During the last decades, cardiovascular primary and secondary prevention and life expectancy have improved. Accordingly, trends in incidence and prevalence of HF are dynamic and may differ over time by age and gender. We aim to investigate the overall and age‐specific and sex‐specific trends, in incidence, prevalence, and the proportion with co‐morbidities of HF over a 10 year period in Region Västra Götaland, Sweden.
