In the last year we have seen the publication of multiple guidance documents on the management of heart failure, each setting new standards for the management of HFpEF, including two national guidelines and a consensus statement on the phenotyping of HFpEF. Why do we need so many guidance documents? What was the rationale behind their development? And how concordant are they?
In the final episode of Heart Failure in Focus for 2023, Dr Muthiah Vaduganathan is joined by Prof Giuseppe Rosano (St George’s Hospital London, UK), who played a central part in the development of the 2023 European heart failure guideline focussed update and an earlier publication on HFpEF phenotyping. He shares his thoughts on these aforementioned questions and together with our host, provide a practical interpretation of how to incorporate the three distinct documents into daily practice.

Ep 4: Mitigating Clinical Inertia in Heart Failure
Multiple clinical trials evidence the long-term benefits of guideline-directed medical therapy in heart failure (HF), and international guidelines make clear recommendations for its rapid initiation. But this hasn’t translated into optimal treatment for most patients in the real-world. So, what steps can we take to reverse this trend?
In this month’s episode, we speak with Dr Tariq Ahmad MD, Chief of Heart Failure at Yale University, and author of several recent behavioural and implementation studies in HF, including REVeAL-HF and PROMPT-HF. In this conversation, we get to grips with the reality of sub-optimal treatment and discuss some possible ways forward using behavioural “nudges” embedded within electronic health records. We also consider the barriers faced in everyday practice that obscure optimal therapy for so many patients.
