“…This percentage is similar to Masoudi et al's report of 35% in a chart review study of over 19,000 Medicare beneficiaries hospitalized who had been discharged with the principal diagnosis of heart failure [13]. Communitybased epidemiological studies have demonstrated that diastolic heart failure is common and is particularly prevalent in older patients, women, and those with a history of hypertension [9,13,14].…”

“…It has been reported to account for more than 50 % of all heart failure patients [4,5]. The prevalence of HFpEF increases with age [1,11,12] and is reported to be more common in women than in men [13][14][15][16]. In HFpEF, dyspnea due to pulmonary congestion is frequently the earliest symptom, whereas muscle fatigue is more prominentinheart failure with reduced EF owing to the reduced cardiac output, impairment of vasodilator capacity, and abnormalities of skeletal muscle metabolism [17].…”

Kafkas Univ Vet Fak Derg, 24 (1): 159-167, 2018. DOI: 10.9775/kvfd.2017 AbstractThe purpose of this article is to give current information on the effect of aging on heart, clasification of heart failure (HF) in geriatric dogs and therapeutic advances and challenges. The aging process results in a host of physiological and biological changes that lead to progressive HF. Nearly any cardiovascular disease (CVD) can lead to HF. HF in geriatric dogs is broadly classified into: Diastolic heart failure is defined as HF with preserved ejection fraction (HF/PEF), systolic heart failure is also known as HF with low ejection fraction (HF/low-EF). Importantly, HF/PEF accounts for approximately 50% of all HF patients and its prevalence is higher in the elderly. In humans, mortality and morbidity benefits for HF/low-EF have been reported with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-Is) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), β-blockers and aldosterone antagonists, and the hydralazine-nitrate combination in patients intolerant to ACE inhibitors or nitrates. Therapies for symptom control and morbidity benefit include diuretics and digoxin. The most common and suggested therapy for dogs with HF by ACVIM panelists is furosemide, ACE-I and pimobendan. Pharmacological therapy is limited for HF/PEF as the results of small trials have been inconclusive. To date, clinical trials in HF/PEF patients have not shown mortality benefit so that management is focused on symptom relief and treatment of the underlying cause.

Gender, age, and heart failure with preserved left ventricular systolic function

Abstract: In elderly patients hospitalized with HF, preserved systolic function is primarily a condition of women, independent of important demographic and clinical characteristics.
