Heart failure is a heterogeneous syndrome. Approximately 30–50% of patients with heart failure have normal or near normal left ventricle function. Several epidemiological studies confirm that the ...
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a condition in which the heart does not fill with blood properly. In HFpEF, the heart can pump normally, but the heart is stiff and cannot ...
DEAR DR. ROACH: My husband is 73 and was diagnosed with heart failure and a severely dilated left ventricle. At the time, he was pumping 10 liters per minute. He had a proBNP natriuretic peptide level ...

Sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure in patients regardless of the presence or absence of diabetes. More evidence is needed regarding ...
Population-based studies report that the majority of elderly patients with heart failure have a normal ejection fraction (HF-NEF) and a history of hypertension. Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, ...
Sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure in patients with heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction, but their effects in patients with heart ...
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a type of heart failure that affects the left side of the heart. It occurs when the lower left chamber of the heart, called the left ventricle ...
