Patients were started on sacubitril\/valsartan and followed-up for 12.3 months (median). Rates of the composite of death\/HF-hospitalization were assessed by multivariable Cox proportional-hazards models. Twelve sites enrolled 727 patients (64 \u00b1 12 year old; LVEF: 29.8 \u00b1 6.2%). Profile-D had more comorbidities and worse renal and LV function. Target dose of sacubitril\/valsartan (97\/103 mg BID) was more likely reached in Profile-A (34%) than other profiles (B: 32%, C: 24%, D: 28%, P &amp;lt; 0.001). Event-rate (per 100 patients per year) progressively increased from Profile-A to Profile-D (12.0%, 16.4%, 22.9%, and 35.2%, respectively, P &amp;lt; 0.0001). By covariate-adjusted Cox model, profiles with low forward-flow (B and D) remained associated with poor outcome (P &amp;lt; 0.01). Adding this categorization to MAGGIC-score and natriuretic peptides, provided significant continuous net reclassification improvement (0.329; P &amp;lt; 0.001). Intermediate and high-dose sacubitril\/valsartan reduced the event's risk independently of haemodynamic profile.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Echocardiographically-derived haemodynamic classification identifies ambulatory HFrEF patients with different risk profiles.
