Residual Risk for HFrEF Despite Conventional GDMT
In PARADIGM-HF, study patients were followed over a median of 27 months.2,*
*Adult patients with NYHA class II–IV symptoms and an ejection fraction of 40% or less were required to take a stable dose of a beta blocker and an ACE inhibitor (or ARB) equivalent to at least 10 mg of enalapril daily, with most also receiving MRA.
McMurray J, et al. N Engl J Med. 2014;371:993-1004.
Of all patients randomized to enalapril, the absolute risk of CV death as a first event was 10.9% (n=459/4212)1

• In addition to the RAAS and SNS, counter-regulatory neurohormonalsystems are also activated
• These systems modulate adverse effects of the RAAS and SNS
• However, many compensatory peptide mediators are degraded by neprilysin

• Does starting sacubitril/valsartan in the hospital offer benefits?
• Is it safe to start in-hospital?• Can drug be started in ACEI/ARB naïve
patients?

2019 ESC-HF Expert Consensus Update
• Sacubitril/valsartan is recommended as a replacement for ACEI/ARB to reduce the risk of HF hospitalization and death in ambulatory patients with HFrEF who remain symptomatic despite optimal medical treatment with an ACE-I, a beta-blocker and an MRA.
• Initiation of sacubitril/valsartan rather than an ACE-I or an ARB may be considered for patients hospitalized with new-onset HF or decompensated chronic HF to reduce the short-term risk of adverse events and to simplify management (by avoiding the need to titrate ACE-I first and then switch to sacubitril/valsartan).Seferovic PM et al.
