Silva-Cardoso, José; Moreira, Emília; Melo, Rachel Tavares de; Moraes-Sarmento, Pedro; Cardim, Nuno; Oliveira, Mário; Gavina, Cristina; Moura, BrendaIn Portugal, a 15.2% prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) was recently identified among those aged ≥50 years. HFpEF represents 90% of Portuguese heart failure patients. HFpEF management in Portugal is challenging due to patient heterogeneity, diagnostic and therapeutic complexity, and organizational constraints on the healthcare system. Considering the above, a panel of Portugues...

Silva-Cardoso, José; Moreira, Emília; Melo, Rachel Tavares de; Moraes-Sarmento, Pedro; Cardim, Nuno; Oliveira, Mário; Gavina, Cristina; Moura, BrendaHeart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) affects more than 50% of HF patients worldwide, and more than 70% of HF patients aged over 65. This is a complex syndrome with a clinically heterogeneous presentation and a multifactorial pathophysiology, both of which make its diagnosis and treatment challenging. A Portuguese HF expert panel convened to address HFpEF pathophysiology and therapy, as we...

Silva-Cardoso, José; Santos, Jonathan; Araújo, Inês; Andrade, Aurora; Morais Sarmento, Pedro; Santos, Paulo; Moura, Brenda; Marques, IreneIntroduction and objectives: Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome that is a significant burden in hospitalisations, morbidity, and mortality. Although a significant effort has been made to better understand its consequences and current barriers in its management, there are still several gaps to address. The present work aimed to identify the views of a multidisciplinary group of health care profess...

SGLT-2 inhibitors: a step forward in the treatment of heart failure with reduce...
Silva-Cardoso, José; Andrade, Aurora; Brito, Dulce; Ferreira, Jorge; Fonseca, Cândida; Peres, Marisa; Franco, Fátima; Moura, BrendaHeart failure (HF) is a major health problem with a significant impact on morbidity, mortality, quality of life and healthcare costs. Despite the positive impact of disease-modifying therapies developed over the last four decades, HF mortality and hospitalization remain high. We aim at reviewing the evidence supporting the use of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, as a novel strategy for HF wi...
