What ejection fraction is HFrEF
<40% ejected from ventricle
What ejection fraction is HFpEP?
Greater or equal to 50 %
What are 4 indications/therapeutic effects of sodium glucose transport inhibitors (SGLT2 (i))?
Decrease glucose in the urine
Naturesis
Anti-inflammatory
Cardio protective
MOA of SGLT 2 inhibitors?
Blocks SGLT 2 protein that is responsible for reabsorbing about 90% of filtered glucose and lots of sodium back into the bloodstream. This remains in the renal tubule leading to glucose and sodium excretion
What are the two main SGLT2 drugs for HF?
Dapaglifozin
Empagliflozin
What is preload?
Pressure of final filling of ventricle
What is after load?
Force the heart has to push against
In heart failure, what is happening to after load and O2 demand?
After load: Increases
O2 demand: Increases
What type of heart disease identifies with myocardial injury reducing contractile reserve?
Ischemic heart disease
What condition identifies with chronic pressure load driving hypertrophy and remodeling?
Hypertension
What diseases identifie with muscle or valve dysfunction and impairs forward blood flow?
Cardiomyopathies and vavular diseases
What two major systems does the RAAS system activate?
RAAS
Sympathetic drive
What raises afterload?
Vasoconstriction
What raises preload?
Sodium retention
