О. Н. Джиоева, Evgeny Belyavskiy
Abstract
Abstract: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a major global public health problem. Diagnosis of HFpEF is still challenging and built based on the comprehensive echocardiographic analysis. Currently, there are no universally accepted therapies that alter the clinical course of HFpEF. This review attempts to summarize the current advances in the diagnosis of HFpEF and provide future directions of the patients´ management with this very widespread, heterogeneous clinical syndrome. Keywords: heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, transthoracic echocardiography, guidelines, diastolic stress test
