Abstract:Background: Recently, a new heart failure (HF) classification was made considering the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) phenotype. Comprehensive assessments of the groups are required to guide patient management.Objective: To determine the differences in sociodemographic, clinical, functional aerobic capacity, and healthrelated quality of life (HRQOL) variables in patients with HF classified with different LVEFs and to explore the correlations between the variables.
Methods:This work is a cross-sectio… Show more
