Description
Heart failure is an important and ever-expanding sub-speciality of cardiology. Many professional bodies working in healthcare are now developing specialist expertise in heart failure. 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. The new edition of Heart Failure 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. As part of the Oxford Specialist Handbooks in Cardiology, the chapters provide concise and objective information to guide all healthcare professionals involved in the modern day multi-disciplinary management of the syndrome. Setout logically to mirror the patient journey in heart failure, this handbook facilitates the practice of optimal evidence-based management for heart failure patients. Ideal for trainee cardiologists, consultant cardiologists, care of the elderly and general physicians, cardiothoracic surgeons, primary care doctors, pharmacists and specialist nurses.
