The prevalence of heart failure (HF) is on the rise due to the aging of society. Furthermore, the continuous progress and widespread adoption of screening and diagnostic strategies have led to an increase in the detection rate of HF, effectively increasing the number of patients requiring monitoring and treatment. Because HF is associated with substantial rates of mortality and morbidity, as well as high socioeconomic burden, there is an increasing need for developing specific guidelines for HF management. The Korean guidelines for the diagnosis and management of chronic heart failure (CHF) were introduced in March 2016. However, CHF and acute heart failure (AHF) represent distinct disease entities. Here, we introduce the Korean guidelines for the management of AHF with reduced or preserved ejection fraction. Part III of this guideline covers management strategies optimized according to the etiology of AHF and the presence of co-morbidities.
由于社会老龄化，心力衰竭（HF）的患病率正在上升。此外，筛查和诊断策略的不断进步及广泛应用导致HF的检出率增加，有效增加了需要监测和治疗的患者数量。由于HF与高死亡率、高发病率以及高社会经济负担相关，因此制定HF管理的具体指南的需求日益增加。韩国慢性心力衰竭（CHF）诊断和管理指南于2016年3月推出。然而，CHF和急性心力衰竭（AHF）是不同的疾病实体。在此，我们介绍韩国射血分数降低或保留的AHF管理指南。本指南的第三部分涵盖根据AHF病因和合并症情况优化的管理策略。
