BACKGROUND Data on the effect on re-hospitalization are limited when levosimendan is added to conventional treatment. We aimed to investigate the role of fragmented QRS (f QRS) on the surface electrocardiogram in predicting the response to levosimendan therapy in patients with acute systolic heart failure. MATERIAL and METHODS Patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 7 admissions per year. RESULTS There were 42 patients in group 1 and 24 in group 2. The presence of fragmented QRS was seen in 41% of the patients in group 1 and in 92% of the patients in group 2 (p
