Cumulative percent survival free of HF readmission according to baseline LVEF (A), posttreatment LVEF (B), and LVEF change (C).

<p>The Kaplan–Meier survival analyses for the patients with HF divided into tertiles by posttreatment LVEF or LVEF change reveal significant differences between the groups in HF readmission (<i>P</i> < .001). However, HF readmission does not differ significantly between the groups according to the baseline LVEF tertiles.
