Heart failure is usually associated with left ventricular
dysfunction. According to recent guidelines, patients
with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40% are
considered to have heart failure with reduced ejection
fraction (HFrEF) or systolic heart failure. Patients
with a LVEF ≥50% and symptoms of heart failure
are considered to have heart failure with preserved
ejection fraction (HFpEF) or diastolic heart failure;
there is little evidence that drug treatment improves
clinical outcomes in these patients. The treatment of
acute heart failure is not included here.
