Popis: Abstract Heart failure is a significant public health concern characterized by notable rates of morbidity and mortality. Despite the presence of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), its utilization remains inadequate. This practical recommendation paper focuses on the utilization of angiotensin receptor–neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) as a pivotal treatment for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and heart failure with improved ejection fraction (HFimpEF). The recommendations presented in this paper have been developed by a group of cardiologists in India who convened six advisory board meetings to discuss the utilization of ARNI in the management of heart failure. The paper emphasizes the importance of accurate biomarkers for diagnosing heart failure, particularly N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), which are commonly used. Additionally, the paper advocates the use of imaging, specifically echocardiography, in diagnosing and monitoring heart failure patients. Moreover, the paper highlights the role of ARNI in heart failure management, with numerous clinical trials that have demonstrated its effectiveness in reducing cardiovascular death or heart failure hospitalization, enhancing quality of life, and diminishing the risk of ventricular arrhythmias. This practical recommendation paper offers valuable insights into the utilization of ARNI in the management of heart failure, aiming to enhance the implementation of GDMT and ultimately alleviate the burden of heart failure on society.
