🫀 SPIRIT-HF at #ACC26: Spironolactone, an aldosterone blocker, compared with placebo, did not show any significant improvement in terms of HF hospitalizations and cardiovascular death at 24 months in patients with #HFpEF or #HFmrEF.

JAMA Cardiology: Biomarker, Functional Status, and Quality-of-Life Trajectories Before Modes of Death in Heart Failure. Figure 1 and 2 show cubic splines depicting trajectories in the period preceding sudden death. NYHA class and KCCQ-TSS graphs are displayed.
In #HFmrEF/#HFpEF, sudden death was usually preceded by modest worsening of symptoms, declining quality of life, and rising NT-proBNP, similar to other causes of death, limiting prediction specificity.
