This editorial refers to 'Discriminating clinical features of heart failure with preserved vs.
reduced ejection fraction in the community'†, by JE Ho et al., on page 1734 and 'Diastolic …

By definition, patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction are characterized by
a normal or near-normal left ventricular ejection fraction, but marked heterogeneity in the …

Approximately half of all patients with heart failure have preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)
and, as life expectancies continue to increase in western societies, the prevalence of HFpEF …

It is estimated that half of all patients with heart failure (HF) have HF with preserved ejection
fraction (HFpEF). Yet this form of HF remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge …

Aims We investigated the relationship between clinically assessed left ventricular ejection
fraction (LVEF) and survival in a large, heterogeneous clinical cohort. Methods and results …

Heart failure is a global public health problem that affects more than 26 million people
worldwide. The global burden of heart failure is growing and is expected to increase …

The 2016 European Society of Cardiology heart failure guidelines introduced the term 'heart
failure with mid‐range ejection fraction'(HFmrEF) to refer to patients with heart failure and a …

Background: Recent trial data suggest that stratification of patients with heart failure with
preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) …

Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) has been the central parameter used for diagnosis
and management in patients with heart failure. A good predictor of adverse outcomes in …
