COMORBIDITIES IN PATIENTS WITH HF (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Management of Comorbidities in Patients With HF (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Management of Anemia or Iron Deficiency

Class IIa
“1. In patients with HFrEF and iron deficiency with or without anemia, intravenous iron replacement is reasonable to improve functional status and QOL. [2][3][4][5](Level of Evidence: B-R) ”
Class III (Harm)
“2. In patients with HF and anemia, erythropoeitin-stimulating agents should not be used to improve morbidity and mortality. [6][7](Level of Evidence: B-R) ”

Management of Hypertension

Class I
“1. In patients with HFrEF and hypertension, uptitration of GDMT to the maximally tolerated target dose is recommended. [8][9](Level of Evidence: C-LD) ”

Management of Diabetes

Class I
“1. In patients with HF and type 2 diabetes, the use of SGLT2i is recommended for the management of hyperglycemia and to reduce HF-related morbidity and mortality. [10][11][12][13] (Level of Evidence: A) ”
