Left ventricular ejection fraction assessment in older adults: An adjunct to natriuretic peptide testing to identify risk of new onset heart failure and cardiovascular death?

OBJECTIVES: Determine whether assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) enhances prediction of new onset heart failure (HF) and cardiovascular mortality over and above N-terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level in older adults. BACKGROUND: Elevated NT-proBNP levels are...
