The aim of the study is to optimize diagnosis and treatment for patients with heart failure in Swedish primary care. Patient with the diagnose heart failure registered in the electronic medical record (EMR) at seventeen primary health care centers (PHCCs) will be invited to to participate in the study. Blood testing and electrocardiography will be performed. Data on diagnosis and medical treatment will be collected from the EMR. An educational visit with a cardiologist will be performed at the PHCC, in order to discuss evidence-based diagnoses and treatment of heart failure. Data on drug therapy and health care consumption will be collected after six and twelve months.
