Heart Failure (HF)
- Can occur without congestion or fluid retention
- Characterized by fatigue, fluid retention, SOB, PND, orthopnea
- We should consider the same urgency for heart failure as patients with CAD and CA.
Heart Failure Preserved/Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFpEF/HFrEF)
- HFpEF is a Preserved Ejcetion Fraction over about 50%
- HFpEF - congestive phenotype more of a fluid retention
- an exercise intolerant phenotupe where the patient becomes intolerant of exercise induced dyspnea.
- Pulm HTN phenotype
- Increased pressure in the heart that gets transmitted to the lungs
- HRrEF is Reduced EF is usually below 40%
Medications
- 4 classes of medications (MRAs, BB, SGLT2, ARNIs)
- Treatment with mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) has been demonstrated to improve clinical outcomes in patients with HFrEF with mild to severe symptoms and also in patients with left ventricular dysfunciton after myocardial infarction.
- SGLT2 inhibitors reduced the risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalizatio
