Topic: 3. Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathy
Introduction and Objectives
Although treatment optimization in patients with heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF) may result in left ventricular reverse remodelling (LVRR) in some cases, predictors of this phenomenon are scarce. This study aimed to: 1) determine the incidence and predictors of absence of LVRR after…
