Objective: Assess the perception of cardiologists, internists, and other specialties on the diagnosis and treatment of heart failure in Vietnam.
Subjects and methods: Crosssectional study, on cardiologists, internists and other specialties at some hospitals in the country.
Results: The study was conducted on 806 physicians nationwide with a mean working time of 7.4 ± 7.1 years. Correct perception of the physician of heart failure is relatively high. However, the perception of cardiologists is better than the non-cardiologists (including internists and other specialties) on the diagnose and treatment heart failure, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and reduced ejection fraction.
Conclusion: Cardiologists’ perception of heart failure is better than the noncardiologists. We need to improve education and training for physicians about heart failure.
