Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
Progressive aging of the population and prolongation of life expectancy have led to the rising prevalence of heart failure (HF). Despite the improvements in medical therapy, the mortality rate of this condition has remained unacceptably high, becoming the primary cause of death in the elderly population.

Sex differences and atrial fibrillation in heart failure with reduced versus preserved ejection fraction [PDF]
Heart failure is a major public health problem. Patients with heart failure often experience dyspnoea, fatigue and/or have peripheral oedema. The prognosis of heart failure remains poor, with a severely impaired quality of life, frequent hospitalizations

Is heart failure with preserved ejection fraction a ‘dementia’ of the heart?
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains an elusive entity, due to its heterogeneous clinical profile and an arbitrarily defined nosology. Several pathophysiological mechanisms recognized as central for the development of HFpEF appear to be in common with the process of physiological aging of the heart.

Management of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is a highly heterogenous disease. There is emerging evidence that treatment should be tailored to the individual’s associated comorbidities No current algorithms exist for the management of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
