Clinical Practice Session
Heart in Harmony: Managing Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction
October 23, 2026 | 10:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Location: Four Seasons Ballroom 1, Convention Center
Session Description
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has emerged as a major contributor to the global heart failure burden. The rising prevalence of diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and an aging population has significantly increased the incidence of HFpEF. This session offers a structured overview of HFpEF, highlighting its changing epidemiology, complex pathophysiology, diagnostic challenges, and contemporary management approaches.
Learning Objective(s)
- Articulate the expanding global impact of HFpEF and its key risk factors
- Explain the pathophysiology of HFpEF
- Discuss the challenges encountered in diagnosing HFpEF in clinical practice
- Describe current approaches and therapeutic strategies for managing HFpEF
Learning Pathway(s)
- Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) Health
- AKI and Critical Care
