Because of increased life expectancy and improved therapeutic methods in cardiology, the proportion of very old patients with cardiovascular disease increases. However, clinical practice "in real life" are still insufficiently known in this population. The recommendations still lack of studies specifically devoted to elderly or very elderly, an extrapolation of data based on evidence obtained in younger populations.
This is a multicenter observational study during a day. On this day, all participating centers fill a questionnaire for each patient 80 years or older hospitalized in their service.
Information about the center will be collected: non-university or university center, presence of coronary angiography room, number of beds, number of patients 80 years or older hospitalized in the day of the investigation.
The questionnaire is designed to:
The day of the survey, information on each patient 80 years or older hospitalized in the service will be collected:
