Current Evidence-Based Treatment of Chronic Diastolic Heart Failure
5
Recommended Therapies for Routine Use: Treating known risk factors (e.g., hypertension) with therapy consistent with contemporary guidelines Ventricular rate control for all patients with AF Drugs for all patients Diuretics Drugs for appropriate patients ACEI ARBs Beta-Blockers Digitalis Coronary revascularization in selected patients Restoration/maintenance of sinus rhythm in appropriate patients Guideline Recommendations* for the Management of Diastolic Heart Failure *From ACC/AHA and HFSA heart failure guidelines; All of these recommendations based on consensus
6
Despite Current Therapies, Heart Failure Morbidity and Mortality Remain High 30% to 40% of patients are in NYHA class III or IV Re-hospitalization rates 2% at 2 days 25% at 1 month 50% at 6 months 5-year mortality ranges from 15% to more than 50% Asymptomatic LVD 15% Mild-moderate HF 35% Advanced HF >50%

Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM)
10
Optimizer II System
11
Early Studies of CCM Preclinical and early clinical studies showed that CCM: Increases cardiac contractility Reduces myocardial work Produces LV reverse remodeling Induces molecular changes (in genes, proteins and phosphorylation) indicative of improved calcium handling and contractile function These observations led to pivotal trials in Europe (FIX-HF-4) and the U.S. (Fix-HF-5)
12
Results of the FIX-HF-4 and FIX-HF-5 Studies In NYHA class III-IV heart failure patients, CCM improves Exercise capacity Quality of Life (MLWHFQ score) NYHA A subgroup of patients (EF ≥ 25, NYHA III) appears to benefit most from CCM* A prospective randomized controlled trial to confirm these observations (FIX-HF-5b) is ongoing in the U.S. *Abraham WT, et al.

17
Spinal Cord Stimulation for Heart Failure SCS is approved for the treatment of chronic pain syndromes and has been used to treat intractable angina pectoris Current evidence suggests that thoracic SCS decreases sympathetic tone In a canine model, SCS caused vagal-like responses by slowing sinus rate and prolonging AV nodal conduction time and ventricular refractory period These effects may be beneficial in chronic heart failure

Cardiac Support Devices Primary goal is to reduces LV radius and transmural pressure, so that diastolic wall stress will fall Other properties (e.g., elasticity) of such devices may provide ancillary mechanisms of benefit First generation devices (e.g. CorCap™) required a major surgical procedure (i.e., sternotomy) Newer devices (e.g., HeartNet™) can be placed via a minimally invasive approach and has unique elastic properties
