Clinical Management of Heart Failure

Clinical Heart Failure Management is designed to provide clinically useful information and guiding principles to assist physicians in the treatment of the typical heart failure patient who presented most often with complex co-morbidities. The authors have based their discussion of heart failure management on pathophysiologic principles, whenever possible. Evidence-based guidelines, including the 2016 ACC/AHA/HFSA Focused Update on New Pharmacologic Therapy for Heart Failure and the 2016 ESC heart failure diagnosis and treatment guidelines, are reviewed in detail. In addition, clinical guidance and prioritization of treatment options is also provided on managing patient who don't fall neatly into guideline directed therapy.
