Pharmacological Treatment of Heart Failure
Optimal treatment of heart failure is important to reduce hospitalization and mortality. In according to recommendation for treatment from major guideline, most patients with HF should be routinely managed with a combination of 3 types of drugs: a diuretic, an ACEI or an ARB, and a beta blocker. The value of these drugs has been established by the results of numerous large-scale clinical trials...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation and heart failure: natural history and pharmacological treatment.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia. Congestive heart failure (CHF), an increasingly frequent cardiovascular disorder affecting millions of people world-wide, has become the most important risk factor of AF in developed countries, as a result of ageing populations.

متن کاملTailored acute heart failure treatment The impact of age and comorbidity on new pharmacological treatment models
1.2 Scientific part Background and state of knowledge Revascularization therapy following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has reduced mortality from approximately 30% in the 1960s to 6-7% at present. However, the mortality observed in AMI patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) exceeds 50% and has hardly improved, despite the introduction of modern treatment strategies. Most CS-related deaths oc...
