Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has recently emerged as a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Contrary to initial beliefs, HFpEF is now known to be as common as heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and carries an unacceptably high mortality rate.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction – onset [PDF]
During these more than 20 years of evolution in understandings of the mechanisms of heart failure (HF) with preserved fractional ejection, there has been a rich variety of terminology, including „diastolic heart failure“, „heart failure with preserved ...

Spironolactone for Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction [PDF]
Mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonists improve the prognosis for patients with heart failure and a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. We evaluated the effects of spironolactone in patients with heart failure and a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction.In this randomized, double-blind trial, we assigned 3445 patients with symptomatic ...

Managing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is increasing in prevalence as the general population ages. Poorly managed heart failure symptoms of decompensated HFpEF is one of the most common reasons for prolonged hospital admission. The high rate of morbidity and mortality associated with HFpEF is compounded by a poor understanding of the ...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in Asia [PDF]
BackgroundHeart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a global public health problem. Unfortunately, little is known about HFpEF across Asia.Methods and resultsWe prospectively studied clinical characteristics, echocardiographic parameters and outcomes in 1204 patients with HFpEF (left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50%) from 11 Asian ...
