Risk Assessment of Adverse Outcomes in Symptomatic Patients With Arterial Hypertension and Chronic Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Using THE HFA-PEFF Algorithm
Abstract:Aim To study the incidence of heart failure (HF) in patients with arterial hypertension (AH), symptoms of HF, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LV EF) ≥50 % using a novel, modified HFA-PEFF diagnostic algorithm and to evaluate the liver hydration status and density depending on the established HF profiles and the prognostic significance of this algorithm.Material and methods This study included 180 patients (median age, 72 years) with AH, symptoms of HF, and LV EF ≥50 %. The incidence of chronic HF… Show more
