Abstract

Hypertension is a major contributor to the development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Our understanding of the epidemiology and pathophysiology of HFpEF in relation to hypertension has increased considerably in recent years. We now know that the pathophysiologic relationship between hypertension and HFpEF is more complex than simply the development of left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction and that there are multiple ways in which hypertension interacts with other comorbidities, the vasculature, and the heart to predispose to HFpEF. Although the treatment of HFpEF has been challenging, there is widespread agreement that control of systemic blood pressure is important in the management of these patients. Here we review the relationship between hypertension and HFpEF, focusing on (1) epidemiology and (2) pathophysiology of HFpEF in relation to hypertension; (3) prevention of HFpEF by controlling hypertension; and (4) established and novel therapeutics for hypertension in the setting of HFpEF.

Neprilysin inhibition, which results in increased levels of natriuretic peptides, is an exciting novel class of drugs for the treatment of hypertension and HFpEF. In a large phase 2 randomized controlled trial (PARAMOUNT), Solomon and colleagues showed that LCZ696, a combined angiotensin receptor blocker / neprilysin inhibitor decreased wall stress (as indicated by circulating levels of NT-proBNP, which are unaffected by LCZ696), and decreased left atrial size.PubMed Solomon SD, Zile M, Pieske B, Voors A, Shah A, Kraigher-Krainer E, et al.

Semaglutid bei Herzinsuffizienz: Wie erklärt sich die Wirksamkeit?

17.05.2024 Herzinsuffizienz Nachrichten

Bei adipösen Patienten mit Herzinsuffizienz des HFpEF-Phänotyps ist Semaglutid von symptomatischem Nutzen. Resultiert dieser Benefit allein aus der Gewichtsreduktion oder auch aus spezifischen Effekten auf die Herzinsuffizienz-Pathogenese? Eine neue Analyse gibt Aufschluss.
