Diastolic heart failure: a myth.

Current opinion in cardiology - 1 May 2006

Brutsaert Dirk L, De Keulenaer Gilles W

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Until recently, patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFprEF) have been excluded from nearly all large clinical trials in heart failure. Based on the conjecture that this clinical picture of heart failure, also known as diastolic heart failure, may be different from other forms of heart failure, several recent and ongoing clinical trials have targeted more specifically...
