Abstract

Most patients with heart failure also have comorbidities that require clinical attention. Comprehensive care should optimise guideline-directed medical therapy while addressing these comorbidities. Recent advances in management include sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, finerenone, intravenous iron and vaccinations. GPs are well placed to deliver holistic, patient-centred care to patients with heart failure.
