Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF) - Healthline
2023年10月26日 · Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) means your left heart ventricle has weakened and less blood is being pumped into your body. HFrEF requires ongoing treatment to...
What is Ejection Fraction? (HFrEF and HFpEF) - Heart Failure …
An EF under 40% is considered reduced (HFrEF), and over 40% is considered a preserved EF (HFpEF). Many patients will have an EF between 40-49% which is considered mildly reduced. More recently, this mild reduction in EF has been termed HFmrEF or heart failure with a …
Types of Heart Failure - American Heart Association
2023年3月23日 · There are two types of left-sided heart failure: Systolic failure: The left ventricle loses its ability to contract normally. The heart can't pump with enough force to push enough blood into circulation. This is also known as heart failure with reduced ejection, or HFrEF.
2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Guideline for the Management of Heart …
2022年4月1日 · RCTs with evidence of survival benefit in patients with HF have mainly enrolled patients with HF with an LVEF ≤35% or ≤40%, often labeled HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). 1 In this guideline, HFrEF is defined as LVEF ≤40% .
Overview of the management of heart failure with reduced ... - UpToDate
2024年3月4日 · Heart failure (HF) is a common clinical syndrome in which symptoms result from a structural or functional cardiac disorder that impairs the ability of the ventricle to fill with or eject blood. HF may be caused by disease of the myocardium, pericardium, endocardium, heart valves, vessels, or by metabolic disorders [1].
Heart Failure and Ejection Fraction - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
2024年5月5日 · Heart failure (HF) is a prevalent and potentially life-threatening condition when not addressed. This article strives to delineate the various forms of heart failure, elucidating the stages, types of HF, and methods of diagnosis and treatment.
Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction: A Review
2020年8月4日 · HFrEF occurs when the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is 40% or less and is accompanied by progressive left ventricular dilatation and adverse cardiac remodeling. Assessment for heart failure begins with obtaining a medical history and physical examination.
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction - BMJ Best Practice
2024年4月9日 · Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is HF with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 40% or less. Heart failure with mildly reduced EF (HFmrEF) is HF with LVEF 41% to 49%. HF is a major and growing public health problem.
Systolic Heart Failure: Symptoms, Causes and Treatment
Systolic heart failure is also called heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Ejection fraction (EF) is a measurement that represents the percentage of blood the left ventricle pumps out with every contraction.
2024 ACC Expert Consensus Decision Pathway for Treatment of …
2024年3月8日 · Sacubitril/valsartan is 1 of the “4 pillars” of medical care for HFrEF. The 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA HF guideline 2 recommends sacubitril/valsartan as a Class I, Level of Evidence: A therapy to reduce the risk of HF hospitalization and CV mortality in patients with symptomatic chronic HFrEF (Figures 2 and 3, Table 2).
