Key result
Advanced imaging technologies and a holistic multiorgan staging system (HLM) provide a better understanding and management of heart failure than left ventricular ejection fraction alone.
Why the study?
Heart failure management cannot rely solely on left ventricular ejection fraction due to its limitations, prompting the need for advanced imaging and comprehensive multiorgan damage staging.

May aid HF phenotyping beyond LVEF; leaves open prospective validation of multimodality imaging and HLM.
Heart failure management should move beyond LVEF-based classification to incorporate advanced multimodality imaging and holistic multiorgan staging systems like HLM.
Severino et al. (2019) conducted a review in Heart failure. Advanced imaging technologies and a holistic multiorgan staging system (HLM) provide a better understanding and management of heart failure than left ventricular ejection fraction alone.
