Registry PROFILE is a patients database with cardiovascular diseases who consistently apply to the specialized cardiology department of the "National Medical Research Center for Preventive Medicine" for consultation or to assess their possible participation in clinical trials The purpose of this study is to assess adherence to medical therapy and its impact on long-term outcomes in patients with chronic heart failure enrolled to PROFILE registry from 01 January 2016 to 01 July 2020. The patients who were enrolled between 01 January 2016 to 01 December 2019 will be invited to clinical visit by phone. For patients who will join PROFILE registry after 01 December 2019 the first visit of this study is the day of enrollment to PROFILE registry.
