Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The proportion of serum NT-proBNP that decreases by more than 30% relative to before treatment; | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Comparison of the absolute decrease and decrease rate of serum NT-proBNP levels between the two groups relative to before treatment;Changes in ultrasound-related parameters (such as EF value, EF slope, etc.);Incidence of composite endpoint events consisting of cardiovascular death and rehospitalization for worsening heart failure;All-cause mortality; | — |
