Overview

This satellite symposium, chaired by Prof Carolyn Lam (National Heart Centre Singapore, SG), provides an excellent opportunity to learn about the latest guideline recommendations in HFpEF and how to implement them effectively in clinical practice.

 

The panel of experts, including Dr Gianluigi Savarese (Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, SE), Dr Stephen Greene (Duke University School of Medicine, North Carolina, US), Prof Mark Petrie (University of Glasgow, Glasgow, UK) and Carys Barton (Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, London, UK) provide valuable insights into the challenges and barriers faced while adopting new guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure patients. Collaborative care is an essential aspect of heart failure therapy and this session emphasises the significance of cross-functional teams in managing this condition.

 

Presented and recorded, at ESC 2023 in Amsterdam, NL.

This Satellite Symposium is supported by an unrestricted educational grant from AstraZeneca who had no involvement in the content.
