Abstract Aims The interstitial space is the major compartment in which the excess fluid is located, forming peripheral congestion in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). The lymphatic system is responsible for the constant drainage of the compartment.

Abstract Aims Guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) is recommended for all patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Despite this, little data exist describing GDMT use in diverse, real‐world populations including the use of vasodilators, prescribed primarily to Black populations.

Abstract Aims Ischaemic mitral regurgitation (MR) is a dynamic condition influenced by global and regional left ventricular remodelling as well as mitral valvular deformation. Exercise testing plays a substantial role in assessing the haemodynamic relevance of MR and is recommended by current guidelines.

Predicting right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist device implant: A novel approach
Abstract Aims Right ventricular (RV) failure (RVF) after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implant is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Modern, data‐driven approaches for defining and predicting RVF have been under‐utilized. Methods Two hundred thirty‐two patients were identified with a mean age of 55 years; 40 (17%) were women, 132 ...

Abstract Aims Despite receiving guideline‐directed medical heart failure (HF) therapy, patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease (PH‐LHD) experience higher mortality and hospitalization rates than the general HF population.

Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is defined by heart failure (HF) with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of at least 50%. HFpEF has a complex and heterogeneous pathophysiology with multiple co‐morbidities contributing to its presentation. Establishing the diagnosis of HFpEF can be challenging.
