Implantation of the Ventura interatrial shunt, while safe, does not improve clinical outcomes or prognosis in patients with HF and preserved LVEF.

An ejection fraction >35% is unconventional to be considered "preserved," so the results of this trial are inconclusive on whether patients with heart failure and ejection fractions usually ...

There’s no “silver bullet” for this problem, which is largely driven by clinical inertia, but some efforts are chipping away ...

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

Therapies are needed for patients with heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction. New research findings on the nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist finerenone ...

Risk for heart failure events is decreased and health status is improved in patients with HFmrEF and HFpEF receiving finerenone.

led to an 18% reduction in cardiovascular death or worsening heart failure in patients with both mildly reduced and preserved ejection fraction, said AZ. Ejection fraction is a measure of how much ...

Systolic heart failure happens when the heart pumps at 40% or less of its ejection fraction. Ejection fraction measures how much blood the heart pumps with each contraction or beat. Systolic heart ...

Cardiovascular disease, sometimes abbreviated as CVD, is the leading cause of death worldwide. It’s a catchall term for heart ...

Although finerenone has kidney protective effects in patients with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes, it does not appear to slow kidney function decline in patients with heart failure with ...

About the APEX Phase 2 Clinical Trial for TX45 in Pulmonary Hypertension with HFpEF TX45 is being evaluated in the APEX Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT06616974) in patients with Group 2 Pulmonary ...
