Use of antihypertensive medications does not appear to reduce the risk of all-cause mortality in patients with heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), reports a study presented at AHA 2023.

Among patients with heart failure (HF), those who have de novo HF have better outcomes than those who have worsening chronic HF status, but treatment with torsemide yields 12-month outcomes that are similar to that observed with furosemide regardless of HF type, according to a post hoc analysis of the TRANSFORM-HF trial.
