Heart failure is an important and ever expanding sub-speciality of
cardiology. Many health care professional bodies are now developing
specialist expertise in heart failure. This is true for
cardiologists in training, consultant cardiologists, care of the
elderly and general physicians, cardiothoracic surgeons, primary
care doctors, pharmacists and specialist nurses. With advances in
medical therapy, the prognosis of the condition has improved
dramatically. Whereas once heart failure was a pre-terminal
diagnosis, now for many it is treatable. However, some patients
remain symptomatic and at high risk of death despite maximal
medical therapy. These patients can benefit from a range of novel
device therapies. For those who remain symptomatic despite optimal
treatment cardiac transplantation remains an option. This updated
book comprehensively covers all aspects necessary to manage a
patient with heart failure. It gives simple, clear advice on the
diagnosis, investigation and treatment options available
highlighting the current evidence-base. The chapters provide
concise and objective information to guide all health care
professionals involved in the modern day multi-disciplinary
management of the syndrome. The book is set out logically to mirror
the patient journey in heart failure. An updated edition of the
first practical manual of heart failure management.
