It addresses how AF aggravates outcomes and why tailored treatment strategies are needed, noting limited evidence on optimal drug choices and the relative role of rhythm versus rate control. The review focuses on four cornerstone HF therapies and prognosis modifiers: beta-blockers, ACEi/ARB/sacubitril-valsartan, aldosterone antagonists, and SGLT2 inhibitors.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/healthcare/","Healthcare",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/european-journal-of-heart-failure-consensus-statement-heart-failure-pharmacotherapy-for-patients-with-heart-failure-with-reduced-ejection-fraction-and-concomitant-atrial-fibrillation-review-of-evidence-and-call-to-action/433144/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/european-journal-of-heart-failure-consensus-statement-heart-failure-pharmacotherapy-for-patients-with-heart-failure-with-reduced-ejection-fraction-and-concomitant-atrial-fibrillation-review-of-evidence-and-call-to-action/433144.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"kopisore","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-30","2026-09-29",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",10,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"Why is atrial fibrillation considered a critical comorbidity in heart failure patients?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"Atrial fibrillation worsens outcomes in heart failure and increases overall morbidity, mortality, and healthcare burden.
