Voorbeelden hiervan zijn: ''81% of the patients were treated with loop diuretics, 84% with renin-angiotensin-system (RAS) inhibitors, 86% with β-blockers, 56% with mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonists (MRA), and 5% with If-channel inhibition.'' (Brunner-La Rocca et al. , 2019) Therapeutic value No judgement This assessment does not indicate any potential inclusion in the package. Substantiation Patiënten met HErEF ontvangen al veel medicatie, vericiguat zal naast deze medicatie voorgeschreven worden. Ondanks dat er geen directe vergelijking is lijkt dapagliflozine mogelijk iets beter: HR dapagliflozine 0,74 op CV death + HF opnames, HR vericiguat 0,90 op hetzelfde gecombineerde eindpunt.
