Understanding how patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) die
provides insight into the natural history and pathophysiology of this complex syndrome …

Heart failure (HF) is a complex, heterogeneous syndrome that results from impairment of
ventricular filling or ejection of blood associated with symptoms of dyspnea, fatigue, as well …

There is an emerging interest in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF)
because of its high prevalence in the community and several specific characteristics …

Background: The magnitude and the prognostic impact of recovering left ventricular ejection
fraction (LVEF) in patients with heart failure (HF) and systolic dysfunction is unclear. The aim …

Heart failure patients are classified by ejection fraction (EF) into distinct groups: heart failure
with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or heart failure with reduced ejection fraction …

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 …

Importance Heart failure (HF) guidelines recognize that a subset of patients with HF and
preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) previously had reduced LVEF but …

Background A subset of patients with heart failure (HF) and preserved left ventricular
ejection fraction (EF) previously had EF< 40%. We postulated that such “recovered” EF …

This article updates the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology
(ESC) 2007 classification of advanced heart failure and describes new diagnostic and …

Background: Patients with heart failure (HF) have a poor prognosis and are categorized by
ejection fraction (EF). Objectives: This study sought to characterize differences in outcomes …
