The most common cause of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in the industrialised world is coronary heart disease.1 Patients with an ischaemic aetiology of left ventricular systolic dysfunction have significantly higher mortality rates than those with non-ischaemic aetiologies.2 This more aggressive course represents the convergence of ischaemic myocardial fibrosis and…
