A facilitated home-based cardiac rehabilitation intervention for people with heart failure and their caregivers:a research programme including the REACH-HF RCT [PDF]
Background: Rates of participation in centre (hospital)-cardiac rehabilitation by patients with heart failure are suboptimal. Heart failure has two main phenotypes differing in underlying pathophysiology: Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction is ...

Identifying Pathophysiological Mechanisms in Heart Failure With Reduced Versus Preserved Ejection Fraction [PDF]
Background: Information on the pathophysiological differences between heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) versus heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is needed Objectives: The purpose of this study was to establish ...

Echocardiographic characterization of heart failure [PDF]
Heart failure is a highly prevalent disease. In failure, the pump function of the heart is insufficient, leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath and fluid retention. Echocardiography is commonly used to diagnose heart failure.

The year in cardiology: heart failure 2014 [PDF]
The year 2014 has become a remarkable year for heart failure. A bad start was caused by the publication of TOPCAT, showing that spironolactone did not prove to be beneficial for the treatment of patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction
