While the links between high blood pressure and heart failure (HF) are well known, the clinical profiles of hypertensive patients (pts) according to measure of left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) remain poorly investigated. O-PREDICT 2 was a multicentre observational study conducted among 1537 general practitioners who classified 4427 hypertensive outpatients (pts) (mean age 72±9 years; 66% males) according to the presence (Group 1, 2969 Pts) or absence (Group 2, age > 65 years) of a history of clinical HF. The study cohort included 2052 (46.4%) pts with an available measure of LVEF, 1713 (58%) from group 1 and 350 from group 2.ResultsIn group 1, 677 (39.5%) pts had a reduced EF ≤ 40% (1A) and 1036 (60.5%) had a preserved EF > 40% ...
