Abstract:
The latest recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology on chronic heart failure published in 2021 propose several new concepts. The main changes include a revision of the classification but most importantly modifications in the therapeutic management, especially concerning the first-line treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Since heart failure affects approximately 2% of the general population, these new recommendations will have a definite impact on the practice of primary care physicians. Integrating these changes into heart failure management is essential to improve the prognosis, symptoms and the quality of life of patients. This article presents the most significant changes and their implications for primary care physicians.
