Background Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), beta blockers, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are of proven benefit and are recommended by guidelines for management of patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). We aimed to examine the first prospective multinational data from Asia on prescribing patterns of guideline-directed medical therapies and analyse its effect on outcomes.Methods In the prospective multinational ASIAN-HF registry (with enrolment from 46 centres in 11 countries in Asia), we enrolled patients aged 18 years or older, with symptomatic heart failure (stage C, with at least one episode of decompensated heart failure in the past 6 months that resulted in admission to hospital or was treated in an outpatient clinic) and left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction
