Aldosterone in Congestive Heart Failure
New England Journal of Medicine, 2001The potent mineralocorticoid aldosterone has a multifaceted role in the pathogenesis of congestive heart failure. In addition to its contribution to salt and water retention, it also promotes organ fibrosis. Although angiotensin-converting–enzyme inhibitors have important therapeutic benefit in heart failure, they do not eliminate the effects of ...

Medical Clinics of North America, 2022
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States with an estimated 6 million adults living with heart failure. In patients with heart failure, the physical examination can provide important prognostic information and is also used to guide both diagnosis and management, including determining the need for inpatient versus outpatient ...

Disease-a-Month, 1988
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is not a single entity but a symptom complex that may represent the consequence of mechanical abnormalities, myocardial abnormalities, and/or disturbances of cardiac rhythm. In turn, it affects virtually every organ system in the body.

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2015
Patients with acute decompensated heart failure are usually critically ill and require immediate treatment. However, most are not volume overloaded. Emergency department (ED) management is based on rapid initiation of noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation and aggressive titration of nitrates.

Hibernation and Congestive Heart Failure
Heart Failure Reviews, 2003The most common cause of heart failure is coronary artery disease, and whilst intensive treatment of acute coronary syndromes and myocardial infarction continue to reduce the mortality associated with these conditions, many survivors develop heart failure.

Pharmacogenomics of congestive heart failure
Medical Clinics of North America, 2003Information on the probable efficacy and safety of drugs for individualized patients should change both the economics and the management of congestive heart failure. Rapidly profiling patients should enhance the ability to develop "designer" drugs for those with similar disease phenotypes.

PROGNOSIS IN CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE
Annual Review of Medicine, 1994▪ Abstract Prognostic variables such as the ejection fraction and peak oxygen consumption can be used to place patients with heart failure in risk strata. Some vasodilators have been shown to improve survival at all stages of heart failure with the probability of benefit increasing as the prognosis worsens.

Fetal congestive heart failure
Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2005Fetal echocardiography is used in the diagnosis of many forms of congenital heart disease, and in the assessment of the prognosis of cardiac lesions based on their anatomy and presentation in utero. However, the presence of signs of fetal heart failure such as hydrops or valvular regurgitation makes the assessment of prognosis more difficult.

The management of congestive heart failure
Current Problems in Cardiology, 1980The symptoms and physical findings of congestive heart failure are learned during the early stages of medical education. They are considered prominently in physical diagnosis courses even before a medical student's clinical clerkships begin. Yet, the diagnosis and proper management of congestive heart failure may still represent a challenge even for ...
