Extent and predictors of guideline-directed medical therapy optimization during cardiac rehabilitation in patients with heart failure
Cardiac rehabilitation after HF hospitalization promoted substantial GDMT optimization, especially in hypertensive patients. Higher loop-diuretic dose at admission predicted less optimization, suggesting that minimizing diuretic doses may ease GDMT titration.
