Finerenone in Patients With a Recent Worsening Heart Failure Event

Compared with those without recent WHF, patients with HF and mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction who have experienced a recent WHF event are at higher risk for recurrent HF events and CV death; a possible signal of enhanced absolute treatment benefit with finerenone in this population requires further confirmation in future studies.
