Acute Decompensated Heart Failure in Patients With and Without COVID-19 — The Experience of a Romanian Center

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Our goal was to characterize a cohort of heart failure patients with and without COVID-19 in terms of demographics, comorbid conditions, treatment regimens, lab test results and outcome.

Interleukin-1 blockade in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: rationale and design of the Diastolic Heart Failure Anakinra Response Trial 2 (D-HART2) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) now accounts for the majority of con-firmed HF cases in the United States. However, there are no highly effective evidence-basedtreatments currently available for these patients.

Potential Mechanisms of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Influencing HeartFailure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Heart failure (HF) is the predominant terminal stage and the leading cause ofmortality in cardiac disease. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF) affects roughly 50% of HF patients globally.

Transcatheter interatrial shunt device for the treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (REDUCE LAP-HF I [Reduce Elevated Left Atrial Pressure in Patients With Heart Failure]): A phase 2, randomized, sham-controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background -In non-randomized, open-label studies, a transcatheter interatrial shunt device (IASD, Corvia Medical) was associated with lower pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), less symptoms, and greater quality of life and exercise capacity in ...

Improving Postdischarge Outcomes in Acute Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The global burden that acute heart failure (AHF) carries has remained unchanged over the past several decades (1). European registries (2–5) showed that 1-year outcome rates remain unacceptably high (Table 1) and confirm that hospitalization for AHF ...

Update on the Value of Lung Ultrasound Examination in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Patients with Various Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is one of the most common causes of hospital admission for cardiovascular diseases. ADHF often affects the elderly population, is associated with high morbidity, admission rate and mortality. Pulmonary congestion (

Development and Challenges of Pre-Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Pre-heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (Pre-HFpEF) is a critical link to the development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Early recognition and early intervention of pre-HFpEF will halt the progression of HFpEF. This

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: an update on pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a clinical syndrome in which patients have symptoms and signs of HF with normal or near-normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≥50%).

Do we need a definition of acute heart failure with preserved ejection fraction?

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2021
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) might soon become the most prevalent type of acute heart failure. Still, despite more than 30 years of research on HFpEF, not only do we lack specific treatment, but also a generally accepted ...
