Heart Failure, a Growing Yet Treatable Epidemic ā MM1701
The clinical syndrome of heart failure (HF) is a final common pathway of most forms of cardiovascular disease. Affected patients typically experience poor quality of life, recurrent hospitalisations, and premature mortality. Although in general the prognosis of patients with HF is considered worse than that for patients with many cancers, the increasing use of effective selective therapies has led to considerable improvement in the prognosis.
