Our patients were younger, predominantly males, with dilated and ischemic cardiomyopathy as commonest etiology. Hypertension and tobacco smoking were most common risk factors, with infections as most common precipitants. Only one-third of patients were on guideline-directed medical therapy. The one-year mortality was 28% and was higher in those without guideline-directed medical therapy.
