Be aware of the trajectory of HFrEF and the importance of medical therapies
for improving outcomes
Understand national and European guidance for pharmacological management of HFrEF
Evaluate the benefits and considerations of the four main pillars of HFrEF therapy:
ACE inhibitors/ARBs/ARNIs, β-blockers, MRAs, SGLT2 inhibitors
Use case studies to build understanding and help put theory into practice

Understand how different pharmacological management options can help people with HFrEF and know when and how to consider prescribing each
Use case studies to build understanding and help put theory into practice

Ejection fraction and its role in differentiating between heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)
The prevalence and burden of HFpEF
The complexities involved with managing comorbidities in HFpEF
