Incidence, retrieval methods, and outcomes of intravascular ultrasound catheter stuck within an implanted stent: Systematic literature review.

abstract：:Heart failure (HF) occurs across the entire range of left ventricular (LV) ejection fractions (EF), not just reduced EF. Nearly half or more patients presenting with HF have a preserved EF>0.50 (HFpEF). Diastolic dysfunction is apparent in all patients with HF, regardless of EF. A preserved EF indicates that the end-d...
