Recovery from Left Ventricular Dysfunction.

The treatment of heart failure is an evolving field of cardiology, with increasingly available therapeutics and significant disease burden. With the effective treatments available, we see a substantial patient population whose once reduced ejection fraction (EF) has normalized. Studies have assessed the natural history of these patients with improved EF and found improved mortality as compared to those patients with persistently reduced EF, with some evidence stating that each 5% increase in left ventricular EF correlates with a 4.9-fold decrease in the odds of mortality. This prognostic divergence has led to the recognition of this subset of patients as having a unique heart failure diagnosis, distinct from heart failure with reduced EF (HFrEF) or heart failure with preserved EF (HFpEF) and to the adoption of the term heart failure with recovered EF (HFrecEF). These patients, despite having improved mortality, do retain some of the molecular and histologic changes seen in HFrEF and are still at risk for decline in left ventricular (LV) function and adverse cardiac events, particularly when medical therapy is stopped. This distinction between recovery of EF and true myocardial recovery led to recent guidelines recommending continuation of guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) indefinitely, as well as surveillance echocardiography.
