Abstract

Among patients hospitalized for HFrEF in contemporary US clinical practice, there were significant gaps in prehospitalization quadruple therapy and only modest GDMT improvement post-discharge, with delayed initiation and high discontinuation rates. Similar patterns were observed with SGLT2i among patients with HFmrEF and HFpEF.
