: Angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) and sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are essential medications in heart failure (HF) therapy, and their potential antiarrhythmic effects have been reported. Recently, ARNI and SGLT2i use for HF in adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) has been studied. However, whether any beneficial effects may be achieved on the arrhythmic burden in the complex population of ACHD with a systemic right ventricle (sRV) is still to be determined.

Trials of single GDMT medications demonstrate improvements in patient-reported outcomes; however, the effect of the multidrug GDMT regimen on patient-reported outcomes is unclear.
Objective: The objective of this study is to determine how multidrug optimization during a multidisciplinary, advanced practice provider HF clinic impacted patient-reported symptoms and quality of life in adults with HF.

Background: IMPLEMENT-HF demonstrated a virtual team-based care strategy was safe and improved prescription of guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) in hospitalized patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). We evaluated differences in efficacy and safety outcomes by ethnicity in IMPLEMENT-HF.
Methods: IMPLEMENT-HF evaluated a provider-facing virtual team-based care strategy vs.

Despite significant advances in the management of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), data concerning older patients remain limited. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the implementation of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) in older patients with HFrEF along with cardiac events and variation in clinical and echocardiographic parameters during follow-up in a heart failure (HF) clinic. We conducted a retrospective observational analysis of patients with HFrEF aged ≥ 80 years who attended an HF clinic between March 2022 and February 2023.

Most patients with HF in rural communities are treated in primary care settings. Multidisciplinary telemedicine-led HF medication optimization clinics were implemented to improve access to specialty care and address health disparities in HF care in rural Appalachian areas.
