Long-Term Effects of Sacubitril-Valsartan on Cardiac Remodeling: A Parallel Echocardiographic Study of Left and Right Heart Adaptive Response.

Sacubitril/Valsartan (S/V) carries potential anti-remodeling properties, however long-term effects and biventricular adaptive response are poorly described. 76 HFrEF patients who underwent progressive uptitration of S/V, completed the annual scheduled follow-up. After a median follow-up of 11 (8-13) months, left ventricular (LV) reverse remodeling (RR) is defined as (1) absolute increase in LV ejection fraction (EF) ≥ 10% or LVEF ≥ 50% at follow-up and (2) decrease in indexed LV end-diastolic diameter (LVEDDi) of at least 10% or indexed LVEDDi ≤ 33 mm/m, occurred in 27.
