Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the bio-clinical effects of sacubitril/valsartan combination in treatment of patients with Congestive heart failure. Moreover, the investigators aim to evaluate side effects of this combination.

\- The following parameters were determined at baseline and at end of the study at 6 months of the beginning.

1. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class.
2. Frequency of hospitalization by acute exacerbation of CHF
3. NT-ProBNP
4. Left ventricular systolic function by Echocardiography

Moreover, the side effects of the drugs used during study was assessed by

1. Renal function (Serum creatinine) was performed every month till the end of the study.
2. Serum electrolytes (Potassium and Sodium) was performed every month till the end of the study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Sacubitril/valsartan

Group 30 patients will undergo treatment with sacubitril/valsartan combination according to guideline-directed medical therapy.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Sacubitril-Valsartan

Intervention Type DRUG

30 patients initially received Sacubitril/Valsartan at 24/26 mg twice daily orally then dose was doubled as tolerated every 2-4 weeks to reach the target maintenance dose 97 mg/103 mg twice daily

Valsartan

Group 30 patients will undergo treatment with valsartan according to guideline-directed medical therapy.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Valsartan

Intervention Type DRUG

30 patients received valsartan, starting at a dose of 40 mg/day orally. The dose was then doubled every 1-2 weeks on the basis of their blood pressure to reach a dose of 160 mg once daily according to guideline-directed medical therapy.
