GOMEZ-MESA, Juan E. y GRUPO INVESTIGADOR RECOLFACA et al. Colombian heart failure registry (RECOLFACA): methodology and preliminary data. Rev. Colomb. Cardiol. [online]. 2021, vol.28, n.3, pp.217-230. Epub 29-Jul-2021. ISSN 0120-5633. https://doi.org/10.24875/rccar.m21000021.
The RECOLFACA registry is Colombias first approach to describing the clinical and demographic profile of patients with heart failure, which includes institutions throughout much of the country. This information is of great importance as it will characterize the population and serve as the basis for designing public policies which will provide better health care to this population. This important epidemiological project, carried out by the Heart Failure, Transplants and Pulmonary Hypertension Chapter of the Sociedad Colombiana de Cardiología y Cirugía Cardiovascular [Colombian Society of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery] is a pioneer in evaluating cardiovascular diseases in Colombia, and will also serve as a model for evaluating other diseases.
