This book explains how hypertension affects 20-50% of the adult
population in developed countries. Heart failure is the result of
the hypertension's effects on the heart and it represents a growing
public health problem. In this context the international scientific
community is continuously struggling to develop better strategies
in screening, diagnosing and treating hypertension and its
deleterious effects. Thus, this field is continuously changing,
with new important information being added constantly. This volume
will offer both insights into the intimate mechanisms of transition
from hypertension to heart failure and clinical practice advice on
the prevention and treatment of heart failure in hypertensive
population. The mechanisms which explain the progression from
hypertension to heart failure will be also covered exhaustively by
offering two chapters referring to the diagnosis of heart failure
in hypertensive population and one regarding echocardiography which
is the most frequently used imaging method in clinical practice.
The reader will be also provided with information on cardiovascular
magnetic resonance which has the unique advantage of
differentiating hypertensive heart failure from other pathologies
associated with increased myocardial thickness. This book is a
useful tool for clinicians but also to the research community
interested in heart failure and consequences of hypertension on
heart who want to be up-to-date with the new developments in the
field.
