NNT to prevent 1 death from any cause

Aspirin for secondary prevention: 333

Spironolactone for HFrEF: 9

If discharging a CAD patient without aspirin sounds crazy, then what does that say about discharging a HFrEF patient without an MRA?

With the evidence generated so far, we may safely conclude that PCI does not improve survival in patients with SIHD. PCI remains key in ACS, and for the improvement of PROMs in consideration of patient compliance and wishes in relation to the intensity of anti-anginals. #TCT2022

@DavidLBrownMD in STICH trial, when EF<35, there is an improvement in all-causes deaths at 10 years.

[Less-Is-More Cardiologist @DavidLBrownMD]

Great to know that the expensive 4-drug HFrEF treatment combo ARNI, BB, MRA, SGLTi that is unaffordable for so many patients is no better that the cheap 3-drug combo ACEi, BB, MRA for mortality, CV mortality, or CV mortality/HF hospitalization.
