Beta-adrenergic blocking agents are now standard treatment for mild to moderate chronic heart failure (CHF). However, although many subjects improve on beta blockade, others do not, and some may even deteriorate. Even when subjects improve on beta blockade, they may subsequently decompensate and need acute treatment with a positive inotropic agent.
