Abstract
EMPEROR-Preserved Trial and EMPEROR-Pooled Analysis For the first time, the EMPEROR-Preserved trial proved the efficacy of a pharmacological product in patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).1 In this study, 5,988 patients with symptomatic HF, ejection fraction (EF) >40% and high levels of natriuretic peptides were randomised to the sodium–glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) empagliflozin (10 mg once daily) or a placebo.
