Robert John Mentz
Associate Professor of Medicine
I serve our group as Chief of the Heart Failure Section.
I became a heart failure cardiologist in order to help patients manage their chronic disease over many months and years. I consider myself strongly committed to compassionate patient care with a focus on quality of life and patient preference.
I am the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Cardiac Failure - The official journal of the Heart Failure Society of America.
My research interests are focused on treating co-morbid diseases in heart failure patients and improving outcomes across the cardiovascular spectrum through clinical trials and outcomes research. Below, you will find my specific research interests:
- Cardiometabolic disease
- Co-morbidity characterization (diabetes, sleep apnea, renal failure) in heart failure
- Phenotypic characterization and risk prognostication of patients with heart failure
- Role of surrogate and nonfatal endpoints in clinical heart failure trials
- Biomarkers in heart failure
- Novel pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches to heart failure
- Improving site-based heart failure research
Current Research Interests
- Clinical trials in heart failure
- Co-morbidity characterization (diabetes, lung disease, sleep apnea, renal failure) in heart failure.

- Role of surrogate and nonfatal endpoints (e.g., dyspnea) in clinical heart failure trials.
- Biomarkers in heart failure.
- Novel pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches to heart failure.
- Improving site-based heart failure research.

Clinical Activities
-
On an annual basis, I typically round approximately 12 weeks on the Duke Hospital inpatient heart failure services (4 weeks on the heart transplant service, 4 weeks on the LVAD service and 4 weeks on the general heart failure service).
Additionally, I see advanced heart failure outpatients one afternoon every week in the Duke South Clinic. I also see heart transplant patients and left ventricular assist device (LVAD or mechanical heart) patients one afternoon every other week.
My principal teaching duty is for the 3 advanced heart failure fellows, including supervising procedures, clinic preceptorship, and didactic lectures. I also have teaching responsibilities to the medicine housestaff, advanced practice providers (APPs) and cardiology fellows rounding on the inpatient services (average of more than 20 per year). Teaching activities include the review of heart failure cases and consultations, including review of heart failure testing and procedures such as cardiopulmonary exercise testing, right heart catheterization and endomyocardial biopsy pathology. I emphasize the need for an evidenced-based approach to heart failure management with a focus on clinical trial evidence.
