Aims Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are recommended (unless contraindicated) to all patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, MRAs are still largely underused in routine clinical practice. This study aims to describe the determinants and pattern of use of MRAs in HFrEF.Methods and results BIOSTAT-CHF is a European multicentre, prospective study which enrolled patients suboptimally treated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEi/ARBs) and/or beta-blockers, with the aim of optimizing guideline-based use of these agents. From the original 2516 subjects, this retrospective post hoc analysis included the 1325 patients with an indication for MRA therapy (i.e. left ventricular ejection fraction 35%, estimated glomerular filtration rate >= 30 mL/min/1.73m(2), K+
