HFimpEF is associated with improved prognosis, albeit with persistent risk of relapse and adverse events in some patients. Current guidelines thus recommend sustained and indefinite guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) for all patients with HFimpEF. Emerging clinical experience suggests that heart failure arising from acute etiologies that fully resolve along with complete LVEF recovery may have a favorable prognosis with lower risk of relapse. Indeed, cohort and case series studies have demonstrated the feasibility of safe de-escalation of GDMT in select patients with specific etiologies, with multiple small trials ongoing. Future studies should investigate whether advanced imaging or blood biomarkers could aid in risk stratifying patients with recovered LVEF, whether partial de-escalation of GDMT could be safe and feasible, and whether implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy can be safely discontinued.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14687,"journal":{"name":"JACC.

In addition, preliminary results of growth hormone deficiency (GHD) correction in HF showed an improvement in quality of life, cardiac structure and function, and cardiovascular performance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Objectives&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;The aim of the present double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial was to evaluate the cardiovascular effects of 1 year of GH replacement therapy in a cohort of patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Methods&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;Consecutive patients with HFrEF in NYHA functional class I/II/III and concomitant GHD were recruited. GHD patients were randomized to receive GH (0.012 mg/kg every second day ∼2.5 IU), or placebo, on top of background therapy. The primary endpoint was peak oxygen consumption (VO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;). Secondary endpoints included hospitalizations, end-systolic left ventricular volumes, N-terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels, health-related quality of life score, and muscle strength (handgrip).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;A total of 318 consecutive patients were screened, with 86 (27%) fulfilling the criteria for GHD. Of these, 22 subjects refused to participate in the study. The final study groups consisted of 64 patients, 30 randomized in the active treatment group and 34 in the control group. After 1 year, 45 patients completed the study (21 in the control group and 24 in the active group). A statistically significant improvement of peak VO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; was reached in the active group (from 12.8 ± 3.4 mL/kg/min to 15.5 ± 3.15 mL/kg/min; &lt;em&gt;P &lt;&lt;/em&gt; 0.01; delta peak VO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; between groups: +3.1 vs −1.8; &lt;em&gt;P &lt;&lt;/em&gt; 0.01).
