Abstract:Guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) reduces morbidity and mortality, but its implementation is often poor in daily clinical practice. Barriers to implementation include clinical and organizational factors that might contribute to clinical inertia, i.e. avoidance/delay of recommended treatment initiation/optimization. The spectrum of strategies that might be applied to foster GDMT implementation is wide, and involves the organizational s… Show more
“…12,13 A scientific statement from the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology identifies therapeutic inertia as a critical issue in managing patients with HFrEF. 14 Therapeutic inertia refers to the delay or avoidance in initiating or optimizing treatment, which is crucial for reducing morbidity and mortality in patients with HFrEF. Despite the proven benefits of GDMT, its implementation remains suboptimal due to various clinical and organizational barriers.…”
