Description:
​​Guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure is critical. Join us to learn how following guidelines can impact left ventricular function and the implications for patients meeting primary prevention criteria for ICDs.​ 

Learning Objectives:

• Define the standard-of-care guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
• Explain how guideline-directed medical therapy affects left ventricular ejection fraction.
• Discuss the considerations for generator replacement when left ventricular ejection fraction has improved.
