Abstract

Treatment of patients with heart failure has become extremely challenging. A complicated interplay of myocardial, hemodynamic, and humoral factors marking this condition requires a delicate balancing of medication use, procedural intervention, and lifestyle changes. Judicious prescription of therapies in stepwise fashion as the syndrome severity worsens (Fig. 2) is critical to success.
