In patients with obesity and heart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF), weekly treatment with tirzepatide over approximately two years reduced the risk of worsening heart failure events, based on findings from the SUMMIT trial.
BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; LVEF, left ventricular ejectionfraction; NT-proBNP, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide. ABSTRACT Aim Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is common in heart failure with a mildly reduced or preservedejectionfraction (HFmrEF/HFpEF) and is associated with worse outcomes.
Heart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) have emerged as major age-related epidemics within cardiology. Indeed, these two conditions are commonly found in the same individual, so much so that AF has been used in proposed diagnostic criteria for HFpEF.
Introduction: The PACE HFpEF trial is a prospective, single-center, randomized multiple crossover study investigating the effects of pacing modality and accelerated pacing on quality of life, NT-proBNP, and functional capacity in patients with heart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF) without pacing indication.
Heart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are comorbid conditions that are increasingly prevalent and have a high socioeconomic burden. This article discusses their shared pathophysiology, focusing on the triad of hypertension, obesity, and aging.We
RELIEVE-HF failed to meet its primary efficacy endpoint and did not reduce heart failure events or improve quality of life in heart failure patients with a preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF). For more information: www.corviamedical.com If you enjoy this content, please share it with a colleague
Guidelines recommend permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation in patients with sinus node dysfunction (SND) to improve quality of life. Patients with heart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF) have many comorbidities including SND, but the optimal treatment approach for HFpEF with SND is uncertain.
Heart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF) has become the leading form of heart failure worldwide, particularly among elderly patient populations. Patients with HFpEF have similarly high mortality rates to patients with heart failure with reduced ejectionfraction.
Background:Patients with heart failure (HF) with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF) and obesity experience high burden of symptoms and functional impairment, and a poor quality of life. Circulation, Ahead of Print. In the STEP-HFpEF trial, once-weekly semaglutide 2.4 5.4,16.1), 8.1 2.7,13.4), 4.6 (-0.6,9.9)
BackgroundHeart failure with preservedejectionfraction ≥50% is prevalent with few evidence‐based therapies. These changes were paralleled by improvements in heart failure‐related quality of life (myPACE Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire improved by 16.1 points, whereas usual care worsened by 6.9
(MedPage Today) -- CHICAGO -- The novel myeloperoxidase (MPO) inhibitor mitiperstat failed to improve quality of life or functional capacity in heart failure with mid-range to preservedejectionfraction (HFmrEF, HFpEF), the phase II ENDEAVOR.
Background: Patients with heart failure, a preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF), and obesity have significant disability and suffer frequent exacerbations of heart failure. Circulation, Ahead of Print. The broad spectrum of effects was reflected in benefits on the hierarchical composite (win ratio 1.63, 95%CI, 1.17, 2.28;P=0.004).Conclusions:
Increasing severity of obesity is associated with multiple characteristics that may contribute to the development or worsening of heart failure (HF) with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF). Overall, 60.9% of patients had BMI ≥30 kg/m 2.
Methods Between 1 November 2018 and 31 December 2020, 10 162 patients with chronic or acute/worsening HF with reduced, mildly reduced, or preservedejectionfraction were enrolled from 220 centres in 41 European or ESC affiliated countries.

BACKGROUND:In heart failure, sympathetic excess and exercise intolerance impair quality of life. In heart failure with reduced ejectionfraction, exercise stimulates a reflex increase in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) that relates inversely to peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak).
The trial, called RELIEVE-HF , is the first randomized placebo-procedure controlled trial of interatrial shunting that included patients with both major types of heart failure : heart failure with reduced ejectionfraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF).

Patients diagnosed with reduced ejectionfraction (HFrEF) and with heart failure with mildly reduced ejectionfraction (HFmrEF) were treated with Vericiguat combined with “ARNI, BB, MRA, SGLT2i” therapy. and improved patients’ quality of life scores. vs. 43.1 ± 8.5%, P < 0.01), LVEDD (60.5 ± 8.1
Abstract Introduction Emerging evidence suggests a beneficial effect of higher heart rates in some patients with heart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF).
Lilly’s blockbuster GLP-1 tirzepatide appears poised to become the next major HFpEF drug, after topline results from the SUMMIT trial showed that it significantly improved both outcomes and symptoms among patients with heart failure with preservedejectionfraction and obesity.
To be familiar with the specific considerations of exercise training prescription in specific HF population groups including HF with preservedejectionfraction. To understand the key principles of exercise training prescription in people with HF. cross-ref type="bib".
Maron, MD “Our findings provide enthusiasm that a novel drug therapy with ninerafaxstat may provide nonobstructive HCM patients an opportunity to achieve a better quality of life by decreasing symptom burden and improving exercise capacity,” said Martin S. The study was funded by Imbria Pharmaceuticals, developer of ninerafaxstat.
In the only large, randomised trial of patients with HF with reduced ejectionfraction (HFrEF), digoxin demonstrated a reduction in hospitalisation with no adverse effect on total mortality but patients in AF were excluded.
The primary outcomes were exercise capacity, diastolic function, and quality of life at baseline evaluation. Patients were divided into two groups based on BB use at trial enrollment. After controlling for potential confounding variables, there were no differences in baseline exercise capacity [peak VO2 (mL/kg/min): 12.1
The primary effectiveness endpoint was a composite of death, heart transplant/left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, HF hospitalization, outpatient HF worsening, and quality of life. HFpEF is HF with preservedejectionfraction in which pressure builds up in the heart and lungs due to a stiffened left ventricle.
What better way to join the fall festivities than by spotlighting key insights in cardiorenal metabolic medicine, primary prevention, and quality of life improvements shared at this year’s biggest U.S. cardiometabolic health CME/CE conference: the 19th Annual CMHC.
BackgroundHeart failure with preservedejectionfraction (HFpEF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) often coincide. Female sex is associated with both increased prevalence of HFpEF and reduced therapeutic efficacy of catheter ablation of AF. Forty-two were female. ml/m2 vs. 25.8 ml/m2, g/m2 vs. 83.0 g/m2,
