Background: Angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI)
and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) are emerging medical
treatments for decompensated heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction.
In clinical practice, the combination of ARNI and SGLT2i cannot be administered
owing to the poor hemodynamic status in patients with HF with reduced ejection
fraction (HFrEF). This study aimed to compare different strategies of HF
management for ARNI first or SGLT2i first in such a population. Methods:
From January 2016 to December 2021, 165 patients were diagnosed with HFrEF and
New York Heart Association functional class
