Empagliflozin, Irrespective of Blood Pressure, Improves Outcomes in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: the EMPEROR-Preserved Trial
Eur Heart J. 2022; online ahead of print DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehac693
Results from EMPEROR-Preserved demonstrated that empagliflozin improved CV and renal outcomes in patients with HFpEF, but its efficacy and safety with baseline SBP is not well established.

Efficacy of Empagliflozin in Heart Failure with Preserved versus Mid-range Ejection Fraction: a Pre-specified Analysis of EMPEROR-Preserved
Nat Med. 2022;28:2512–2520 DOI: 10.1038/s41591-022-02041-5
Results from EMPEROR-Preserved demonstrated that empagliflozin improved CV death and HF hospitalisation – the primary outcome – in patients with HF and LVEF >40%. This pre-specified analysis of EMPEROR-Preserved aimed to evaluate the effect of empagliflozin in patients with HFpEF (LVEF ≥50%) compared with patients who had HFmrEF (LVEF 41–49%).
