Abstract Aims Patients hospitalized for heart failure (HF) had worse in‐hospital outcomes during the first wave of the COVID‐19 pandemic. However, their long‐term outcomes are unknown. We describe long‐term outcomes among patients who survived to hospital discharge compared with patients hospitalized in 2019 from two referral centers in London during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Methods and results In total, 512 patients who survived their hospitalization for acute HF in two South London referral centers between 7 January and 14 June 2020 were included in the study and compared with 725 patients from the corresponding period in 2019.
