Tailoring Heart Failure Therapy (Hardcover)

Given the increasing number of drugs available for the treatment of heart failure and associated diseases like hypertension and hypercholesterolemia, as well as the different patient types who present in the clinic, it appears increasingly obvious that the same therapeutic regimen cannot be used for all patients. Tailoring Heart Failure Therapy is a unique guide designed to aid the practising physician in the day-to-day choice of therapy for the wide range of categories of patients with heart failure. Ronnie Willenheimer and Karl Swedberg and peers offer valuable, practical advice as to the best options for treating the individual patient. The first chapter outlines the 'general treatment rules' for chronic heart failure, and the following chapters each focus on the treatment of special categories of patients with chronic heart failure, comparing these to the 'general rule'. Categories include: older patients, women, pregnancy, minority ethnic groups, cardiomyopathy, renal failure, heart failure. Special consideration is given to heart failure patients with genuine depression.
