Management, survival, and predictors of mortality among hospitalized heart failure patients at Debre Markos comprehensive specialized hospital, Northwest Ethiopia: Prospective cohort study

SAGE Open Medicine, 2021
Introduction: Heart failure is a major public health problem worldwide. Since heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and preserved ejection fraction are different clinical entities, in-hospital mortality may occur at different rates.

Treatment of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction [PDF]

Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, 2011
Heart failure contributes to more than 1 million hospitalizations annually and is one of the most common causes of repeat hospitalizations in the elderly. Previously, it was thought that mortality from heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (PEF) was lower than that from heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (REF), but more recent data ...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in Asia [PDF]

European Journal of Heart Failure, 2018
Abstract Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a global public health problem. Unfortunately, little is known about HFpEF across Asia. Methods and results We prospectively studied ...

Characterizing Heart Failure Across the Spectrum of the Preserved Ejection Fraction: Does Heart Failure With Supranormal Ejection Fraction Exist? Data From the Swedish Heart Failure Registry

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Sparce data suggest higher mortality in heart failure (HF) with left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) >65% to 70%. We characterized EF distribution, characteristics, and outcomes in patients with HF and EF ≥50%.

Axial Muscle Size as a Strong Predictor of Death in Subjects With and Without Heart Failure

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background The impact of skeletal muscle size, quantified using simple noninvasive images routinely obtained during cardiac magnetic resonance imaging studies on mortality in the heart failure (HF) population is currently unknown.

Living With Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

JACC: Heart Failure, 2017
I was diagnosed with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) 2.5 years ago. After the initial shock of learning I have an untreatable and incurable heart disease, I settled into learning to live with the disease disrupting my life as little as possible, seeing my cardiologist ...
