The 2022 ACC Heart Failure Guidelines: What Do They Mean for Your Practice?

Taking the recent ACC heart failure guideline updates as its core theme, this symposium 'The 2022 ACC Heart Failure Guidelines: What Do They Mean for Your Practice?' will provide a succinct overview of the changes with one of the guideline’s primary authors. We will then consider how guidelines have evolved to accommodate the growing number of foundational treatments for heart failure and how we are moving towards personalised care. We also take a look at HFpEF, and assess how our treatment options have changed and what else can be expected for this population.

This symposium is part of Heart Failure Online 2022, a world-class virtual event dedicated to the latest heart failure treatment strategies to support better patient outcomes.
