Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: Diagnosis and Management.
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a prevalent condition with substantial individual and societal burden. In this article, we review the current status of understanding of HFpEF, focusing on the challenges and uncertainties regarding diagnosis and treatment. We then propose a scientific roadmap to facilitate research that may translate into improved clinical outcomes.
