Abstract Aims The impact of hospital readmissions on the outcomes of heart failure (HF) patients is well known. However, data on temporal trends of cause‐specific hospital readmissions in these patients are limited. Methods and results From 1987 to 2014, we identified and followed up for 1 year 608 135 patients ≥18 years hospitalized with HF according to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) 9 and 10 from the National Inpatient Register.
