Heart Failure With Preserved, Mid-Range, and Reduced Ejection Fraction
T he European Society of Cardiology (ESC) recently published new guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic heart failure (HF). 1 The new nomenclature includes separating patients with HF into 3 distinct groups depending on the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF): preserved LVEF (≥50%), mid-range LVEF (40–49%), and reduced LVEF (≤40%). Although there have been several...
متن کاملQuality of life is impaired similarly in heart failure patients with preserved and reduced ejection fraction.
AIMS To compare quality of life (QoL) in heart failure (HF) patients with preserved ejection fraction (HF-PEF) and HF patients with reduced ejection fraction (HF-REF) in a well-defined HF population. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with HF-PEF [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥40%] were matched by age and gender to patients with HF-REF (LVEF <40%). In the current study, we only include...
متن کاملHeart failure with preserved and reduced ejection fraction: different risk profiles for different diseases.
Approximately 15 million Europeans and 6 million Americans suffer from heart failure (HF), with annual direct and indirect costs in the billions. About half of patients have a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), while the others display a reduced EF (HFrEF). Clinical trials have unequivocally shown that treatments such as neurohormonal antagonists improve outcome in HFrEF, while similar trials...

متن کاملHeart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
Symptomatic heart failure, despite preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction, is a well-recognized phenomenon. This manifestation of diastolic dysfunction is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and can be attributed to a variety of pathogeneses, including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, infiltrative processes, and obesity. Unlike in systolic heart failure, where LV ejecti...
