I’m Fernando, a GP in the UK. What are Angiotensin receptor–neprilysin inhibitors? They are a relatively new class of medications used specifically in the management of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. At present, the only available one is sacubitril/valsartan. If you are interested in learning how Sacubitril/valsartan works, here is some background information.The first thing to understand is that the pathophysiology of heart failure involves an abnormal activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). This leads to vasoconstriction, hypertension, increased aldosterone levels, increased sympathetic tone, and eventually, cardiac remodelling, all of which worsen the disease over time. ACEIs or ARBs play a major role in reducing HF morbidity and mortality by blocking this abnormal activationAt the same time that the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is activated, the natriuretic peptide system is also activated, hence the elevated BNP and NT-pro BNP seen in heart failure. This compensatory mechanism leads to vasodilation, natriuresis, and diuresis. As a result, the natriuretic peptide system decreases blood pressure, lowers the sympathetic tone, and reduces aldosterone levels. The natriuretic peptide system functions antagonistically to the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and has favourable impact on heart failure. Natriuretic peptides are broken down by an enzyme called neprilysin. Sacubitril/valsartan is a combination product. Sacubitril is a pro-drug that, upon activation, acts as a neprilysin inhibitor. So, it works by blocking the action of neprilysin, thus preventing the breakdown of natriuretic peptides, which leads to a prolonged duration of the favourable effects of these peptides.However, because neprilysin also breaks down angiotensin II, inhibiting neprilysin will accumulate angiotensin II. For this reason, a neprilysin inhibitor cannot be used alone; it must always be combined with an ARB to block the effect of the excess angiotensin II. This is why Valsartan is used.Another important substance broken down by neprilysin is bradykinin; neprilysin inhibition will also cause a build-up of bradykinin. Therefore, ...

    The video version of this podcast can be found here: · https://youtu.be/i0L-Nv4bJzsThis episode makes reference to guidelines produced by the "National Institute for Health and Care Excellence" in the UK, also referred to as "NICE". The content on this channel reflects my professional interpretation/summary of the guidance and I am in no way affiliated with, employed by or funded/sponsored by NICE.NICE stands for "National Institute for Health and Care Excellence" and is an independent organization within the UK healthcare system that produces evidence-based guidelines and recommendations to help healthcare professionals deliver the best possible care to patients, particularly within the NHS (National Health Service) by assessing new health technologies and treatments and determining their cost-effectiveness; essentially guiding best practices for patient care across the country.My name is Fernando Florido and I am a General Practitioner in the United Kingdom. In this episode I go through the NICE guideline on Chronic heart failure in adults: diagnosis and management [NG106], last updated in September 2025. Today’s episode focuses on the additional management of heart failure. In previous episodes we covered the initial assessment and diagnosis and the drug management of the different subtypes of heart failure.I am not giving medical advice; this video is intended for health care professionals, it is only my summary and my interpretation of the guidelines and you must use your clinical judgement.

Now let’s start by looking at how to initiate and monitor medication use.When tailoring treatment, we should use the person’s medical history, frailty status, and prognosis to decide which specific medicine combinations to use and how to introduce them.In primary care, we should seek the advice from a heart failure specialist before starting someone on an angiotensin receptor–neprilysin inhibitor, that is, sacubitril/ valsartan.Before prescribing an ACE inhibitor, ARB, angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), or mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, we will measure renal function and electrolytes.Once these drugs have been ...

Categorising cardiac function is crucial because the treatment of heart failure will be different depending on the ejection fraction. We classify heart failure as follows:Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, when the ejection fraction is 40% or below.Heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction, when it is between 41 and 49%.And Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, when ...
