Objective To investigate the prevalence and distributing feature of chronic heart failure (CHF) in adult population of Xinjiang. Methods Four-stage random sampling method was used to analyze the prevalence and distributing feature of self-reported congestive heart failure among different nationalities in adult (35 years and over) population of Xinjiang. Sampling was collected from 6 localities ( Urumqi, Kelamayi, Fukang, Turfan Basin, Hetian, Yili Hazakh). Results A total of 8459 adults were surveyed. The prevalence of CHF was 1.26% in this cohort The prevalence of CHF was 0.89% , 1. 11% and 2. 14% * in Han, Uygur and Hazakh population, respectively ( * P <0. 05 vs. Han and Uygur). The risk of CHF was higher in the males than in the females ( 1. 61% vs. 0. 93% , u = 2. 79, P < 0. 05 ) . The prevalence of CHF increased in proportion with aging and was 0. 29% , 0. 60% , 1. 32% , 2. 55% and 4. 10% in 35 - 44, 45 - 54, 55 - 64, 65 - 74, 75 years and over age groups, respectively. Common complications of CHF were hypertension ( 63. 55% ), coronary heart disease ( 42. 99% ) , diabetes (18.69%), valvular heart disease (5.61%) and atrial fibrillation (4.67%). Conclusion The prevalence of CHF in Xinjiang was higher than the average level in China (0. 9% ) and was the highest in the Hazakh population.
