    • no reason to change 1 year duration of therapy[8]
    • 6 months of therapy equivalent to 1 year[19]

Monitor

* no indication for continued surveillance with echocardiography or cardiac magnetic resonance imaging if LV systolic function normal 6 months after completion of therapy, & no signs or symptoms of heart failure[7]
