Why the study?
Although guidelines recommend ARNIs as a replacement for ACE inhibitors in heart failure, no reviews had comprehensively covered different aspects of efficacy and safety parameters.

Supports ARNI preference over ACEI/ARB in HFrEF; reinforces guidelines with added safety detail on hypotension.
Do angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitors improve clinical outcomes and echocardiographic parameters in patients with heart failure?
ARNIs demonstrate a beneficial efficacy profile in heart failure management by significantly reducing mortality and hospitalizations and improving echocardiographic parameters, though they increase the risk of symptomatic hypotension.
