Prominent ‘Y’ descent is an ominous sign of a poorer prognosis in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Abstract Aims The heterogeneity of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) represents different pathophysiological paths by which individual patients develop heart failure. The deterioration mechanisms are considered to be mainly left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, right ventricul...
