Approximately 50% of patients hospitalized for heart failure have preserved systolic function. These patients are more likely to be older, women, and hypertensive. Their duration of hospitalization is similar to that of heart failure patients with systolic dysfunction, but their in-hospital mortality risk is lower. This mortality risk is increased in the setting of renal insufficiency, and the two most important risk predictors are elevated blood urea nitrogen and systolic blood pressure < or = 125 mm Hg. Medical treatment strategies for patients with preserved systolic function are inconsistent and reflect the need for efficacious evidence-based treatment regimens.
