Brief Summary

Investigators are building an empirical evidence base for real-world data through large-scale emulation of randomized controlled trials. The investigators' goal is to understand for what types of clin...

  • FOLLOWING ELIGIBILITY OF THE SUMMIT TRIAL
  • ≥ 40 years old, male or female sex
  • Chronic heart failure (NYHA Class II-IV) diagnosed for at least 3 months before Visit 1
  • LVEF ≥50% demonstrated by echocardiogram performed at Visit 1 or within 6 months of Visit 1
  • Structural heart disease
  • Either one of: (1) eGFR \<70 mL/min/1.73m2 at Visit 1, (2) HF decompensation within 12 months of Visit 1, defined as hospitalization for HF requiring IV diuretic treatment or urgent HF visit requiring IV diuretic treatment
