In the forecasted period from 2024 to 2028, hospital discharges for heart failure cases in the UK are expected to progressively increase from 106.37 thousand to 111.05 thousand. This represents a consistent year-on-year growth of approximately 1.12% to 1.22%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years is estimated at nearly 1.12%. In 2023, the number of hospital discharges stood at about 105.0 thousand, indicating a steady rise in cases attributed largely to an aging population and lifestyle factors.
Future trends to watch include advancements in preventative care and treatment, which might reduce discharge rates, alongside shifts in healthcare policies and funding that could impact hospital operations and capacity.
