Abstract / Description:
Influenza places a significant health burden on the US population, resulting in an estimated 140,000-810,000 hospitalizations and 12,000-61,000 deaths annually.1 Influenza is associated with acute cardiovascular events, including heart failure exacerbations,2 ischemic episodes,2 and overall cardiovascular mortality, even in people with no prior cardiac history.3 In individuals with cardiovascular risk factors who become infected with influenza, there is a significant association between influenza and acute myocardial infarction.4
