(2021 ACC update of the heart failure guidelines)

Abstract

The American College of Cardiology has published an update of the heart failure guidelines treatment in the beginning of the year 2021. We bring short information about this document. It is expected that the European Society of Cardiology will publish new European guidelines this year, which will probably confirm the increasing indication for sacubitril valsartan (ARNI) and for SGLT2 inhibitors, as a new drug class for heart failure treatment. The percutaneous access for the treatment of mitral regurgitation is also a new one. The whole document has 32 pages.
