Introduction

Heart failure (HF) is the inability of the heart to maintain a cardiac output sufficient to meet the metabolic needs of the body. It is a common condition with high morbidity & mortality.

Classification

based on LV ejection fraction[111]

  • HF with reduced EF (HFrEF): LVEF of up to 40%.
  • HF with mildly reduced EF (HFmrEF): LVEF of 41-49%.
  • HF with preserved EF (HFpEF)HF with an LVEF of at least 50%.
  • HF with improved EF (HFimpEF): HF with a baseline LVEF of 40% or less, an increase of at least 10 points from baseline LVEF, & a 2nd measurement of LVEF of > 40%
