Abstract
Transplant-free survival to one year is significantly better for patients presenting to clinic, but longer-term survival is better amongst those presenting to ICU due to a late attrition in those with less severe heart failure at presentation. Falling NT-proBNP is the earliest marker of recovery. Recovery of cardiac function remains possible up to three years from presentation.
