Abstract Aims Ischaemic coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of mortality globally due to sudden death and heart failure (HF). Invasive coronary angiography (CAG) is the gold standard for evaluating the presence and severity of CAD. Our objective was to assess temporal trends in CAG utilization, patient characteristics, and prognosis in HF patients undergoing CAG at a national level. Methods and results We used data from the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry. Data on all patients undergoing CAG for HF indication in Sweden between 2000 and 2018 were collected and analysed. Long‐term survival was estimated with multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression adjusted for differences in patient characteristics. In total, 22 457 patients (73% men) with mean age 64.2 ± 11.3 years were included in the study. The patients were increasingly older with more comorbidities over time. The number of CAG specifically for HF indication increased by 5.5% per calendar year (P 50% diameter stenosis in one or more coronary arteries (HF‐CAD). The median follow‐up time was 3.6 years in HF‐CAD and 5 years in HF‐NCAD. Age and sex‐adjusted survival improved linearly by 1.3% per calendar year in all patients. Compared with HF‐NCAD, long‐term mortality was higher in HF‐CAD patients. The risk of death increased with the increasing severity of CAD. Compared with HF‐NCAD, the risk estimate in patients with a single‐vessel disease was higher [hazard ratio (HR) 1.3; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.20–1.41; P |
