    Low admission pulse pressure (PP) predicts higher in-hospital mortality rates in heart failure patients.

  • 2

    Patients with PP <30 mmHg have increased odds of all-cause mortality and cardiac death.

  • 3

    The relationship between low PP and in-hospital mortality is consistent across different left-ventricular ejection fraction phenotypes.

  • 4

    A total of 21,768 heart failure patients were analyzed, with 1,541 experiencing in-hospital mortality.

  • 5

    Integrating PP into risk-stratification algorithms may enhance monitoring and triage for heart failure patients.
