    RT @slumberbell: 🚨BREAKING NEWS from #ESCCongress: The 2026 ESC Guidelines for the Management of Heart Failure are here, with major changes!🫀 Some of them: 📍HFrEF now includes LVEF <50%; HFmrEF has been removed 📍HFpEF is defined as LVEF ≥50% 📍“Acute HF” becomes “decompensated HF,” including acute or gradual deterioration requiring urgent treatment, even in an ambulatory setting 📍New treatment framework: Foundational Medical Therapy (FMT), Additional Medical Therapy (AMT) & Guideline-Directed Interventional Therapy (GDIT) 📍New decongestion strategy: urinary sodium-guided diuretic therapy may be considered (IIb B), while short-term acetazolamide or hydrochlorothiazide should be considered for persistent fluid overload despite loop diuretics (IIa B) 📍CRT recommendations remain broadly similar, but implantation may be planned earlier after FMT initiation Read more: #ESCGuidelines #HeartFailure @escardio @jozinetm @h_arfsten @GTersalvi @DaniTomasoni_

    RT @HFA_President: 🫀Right heart catheterisation gives us the numbers, but how do we translate them into the right clinical diagnosis? Revisit this practical HFA Fundamentals+ session in collaboration with #ACVC_ESC & learn how to: 📍Interpret pressure tracings and haemodynamic measurements
📍Assess cardiac output, filling pressures and vascular resistance
📍Recognise common technical pitfalls
📍Integrate invasive haemodynamics into clinical decision-making in heart failure 🔗: Faculty: Drs. @FudimMarat @DaniTomasoni_ @JohannesGrand @escardio @jozinetm @h_arfsten @GTersalvi #HFA_ESC #HFAYoung #RHC #HeartFailure #HF
