Abstract:
Background: Despite the widespread use of Sacubitril/valsartan (Sac/Val) in patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), definite data on cardiac remodeling under treatment are still lacking.
Methods and aim of the study: We conducted a retrospective analysis on a large cohort of 201 consecutive HFrEF ambulatory patients who started Sac/Val in our HF unit between Sept. 2016 and Dec. 2018 on top of optimal medical treatment. Patients with both basal and follow up (at least 3 months) echocardiographic assessment (TTE) were included.
Results: A follow up TTE was performed in 100 patients (male 76%; mean age 67.4±11.1 years; medium follow-up 309±182 days). Baseline characteristics are shown in Tab.1. 34% of the patients reached the maximal dose (97/103 b.i.d.) while 18 interrupted the treatment. We observed an overall significant improvement in ejection fraction (EF), end-diastolic and end-systolic ventricular volumes (EDV/ESV), while just a trend in pulmonary pressures (PAPs) and mitral regurgitation (MR) reduction was noted (p=0.06 and 0.09 respectively). Non ischemic etiology and high dose of Sac/Val were predictors of better remodeling (Fig.1).
Conclusion: Sac/Val led to an early favorable ventricular remodeling assessed by echocardiography. The benefit was greater in patients on higher Sac/Val dose and non ischemic etiology.
