Abstract: Aims: Guidelines divide patients with heart failure (HF) into 3 distinct groups based on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) We used the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) to quantify the health-related quality of life in patients with HF. Methods: Patients were stratified into three cohorts: preserved LVEF (>50%), mid-range LVEF (40–49%) and reduced LVEF (
