Get with the Guidelines (GWTF) Heart Failure Registry

Description: Get With The Guidelines® (GWTG) is a hospital-based quality improvement program designed to close the treatment gap in cardiovascular disease, stroke, and resuscitation. It includes modules in coronary artery disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, stroke and resuscitation. Each program provides physicians and healthcare providers with materials, information and tools based on relevant evidence-based guidelines. A key component of this continuous quality improvement program is to monitor progress through the web-based Patient Management Tool (PMT).

The Get With The Guidelines database measures hospitals’ adherence to secondary prevention guidelines (pharmacological and lifestyle interventions) for coronary artery disease, heart failure and stroke.
