Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: Is this Relevant?

Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 10

Abstract

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is more common in people of old age. In Indian population, HFpEF has been unified with hypertension, diabetes mellitus and artherosclerosis in most of the cases. In this study we examined risk factors, clinical features and prognosis of patients with HF. We compared outcomes based on LV functional status and risk factor of HF. This study includes participants with incident HF occurring between January 2017 to June 2017 with evaluation of LV systolic function at the time of their initial episode of heart failure.
