Heart failure ejection fraction class conversions: impact of biomarkers, co-morbidities, and pharmacotherapy.

Despite similar ECM scores, EF class conversion groups demonstrated salient differences in average serum sodium and pro-BNP levels. Inpatient ARNI orders, psychiatric, hematologic, and oncologic co-morbidity patterns were also significantly different. Findings demonstrate blood-based biomarker patterns and targetable co-morbid conditions which may play a role in future EF class conversion. Dedicated studies evaluating measurements related to GDMT dose-titration, quality of life, and functionality are the next steps in this field of HF.
