Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is associated with high mortality and adverse events (hospitalization or urgent outpatient visits for HF), along with diminished quality of life. Despite convincing data that evidenced-based, guideline-directed medical therapies (GDMT) improve mortality and heart failure-related events, there remains insufficient utilization of these life-saving drugs (evidence-based beta-blockers (EBBB), angiotensin-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI)/ angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi)/ angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in patients with HFrEF. The primary objective of this study is to implement and evaluate a multifaceted, interdisciplinary intervention to improve GDMT use, reduce mortality, and reduce future heart failure events in patients with HFrEF.
