Heart Failure: Advanced Refractory Heart Failure.
FP essentials, 2021End-stage heart failure (HF) is associated with an extremely poor prognosis. Progressive and/or persistent HF signs and symptoms in the setting of optimal therapy is the hallmark of more advanced disease. Physicians must be able to recognize patients with features of refractory HF to aid in timely evaluation for advanced therapy options.

Heart failure: advances through genomics
Nature Reviews Genetics, 2011Heart failure is an increasingly prevalent and highly lethal disease that is most often caused by underlying pathologies, such as myocardial infarction or hypertension, but it can also be the result of a single gene mutation. Comprehensive genetic and genomic approaches are starting to disentangle the diverse molecular underpinnings of both forms of ...

Recent advances in the diagnosis of heart failure
Current Cardiology Reports, 2004Heart failure has reached epidemic proportions and the prevalence is increasing. The accurate and efficient diagnosis of heart failure remains problematic, as signs and symptoms are neither sensitive nor specific. Recent advances in the diagnosis of this condition include a conceptual change in what constitutes heart failure, a greater understanding of

Frailty and prognosis in advanced heart failure
Current Opinion in Supportive & Palliative Care, 2014The frailty syndrome is characterized by an increased vulnerability to physiologic stress. Frailty is distinct from disability and disease states; however, there is a strong relationship between frailty and heart failure and the pathophysiology's overlap. Heart failure exacerbations and hospitalizations likely accelerate the cycle of frailty.

Nonadherence in the Advanced Heart Failure Population
Current Heart Failure Reports, 2016The number of patients living with heart failure (HF) in the USA now exceeds 5 million. Although HF is a disease readily treated by medications and lifestyle interventions, nonadherence is common, leading to worse clinical outcomes and increased healthcare costs.
