Implementation of guideline‐recommended medical therapy for patients with heart failure in Europe

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 790-798, April 2025.
Abstract Physicians' adherence to guideline‐recommended heart failure (HF) treatment remains suboptimal, especially regarding the target doses. In particular, there is evidence that non‐cardiologists are less compliant with HF guideline recommendations. This is likely to have a detrimental impact on patients' survival, readmissions and quality of life.

Analysis of the usefulness and benefits of ultrafiltration in cardiorenal syndrome: A systematic review

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1194-1202, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Cardiac decompensation in cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) results in systemic congestion usually treated with diuretics. When despite high doses of diuretics, response is poor, ultrafiltration (UF) appears to be a useful and safe technique.

Role for inflammatory markers in predicting right ventricular failure in mechanical assist device recipients

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a common complication following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation and increases patient morbidity and mortality. Due to the complex and limited understanding of RVF pathophysiology, efforts to prognosticate RVF after LVAD have been challenging.
