Classifying heart failure based on ejection fraction: imperfect but enduring
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "European Journal of Heart Failure"
DOI: 10.1002/ejhf.2470
Abstract: For decades, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) has been the mainstay metric for classifying patients within clinical trials for heart failure (HF). Nearly all landmark clinical outcome trials resulting in therapeutic advances for patients with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00380-017-1080-6
Abstract: In patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), it is unclear if combined assessment of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) improves prediction of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00380-022-02028-9
Abstract: Root infection or dissection involving coronary artery frequently necessitates an emergent Bentall procedure, with low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). In contrast, concerning an elective Bentall for aneurysm, surgeons should balance the risk and benefit… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00392-024-02443-0
Abstract: As there is limited evidence regarding the prognostic impact of prior left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF), this study investigates the prognostic impact of longitudinal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ahj.2017.11.012
Abstract: Background Cardiac troponin (cTn) levels reflect infarct size and depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with non–ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE‐ACS). However, there is very limited information on whether cTn measured with… read more here.
