With the aging of the population, heart failure is fast becoming an epidemic the medical community needs to deal with. In special patient populations, such as the elderly, the question of treatment cannot be a simple one. All of the authors who have contributed to this book are nationally and internationally recognized experts in cardiovascular disease as it appears in the elderly. They are dedicated to improving care for older persons and their many years of personal experience enable them to summarize and synthesize their respective topics with unique insights that are highly beneficial to the reader.The epidemiology, pathophysiology, prognosis, clinical manifestations, diagnostic assessment, etiology, and role of echocardiography in the diagnostic assessment and etiology of heart failure are discussed.The treatment of heart failure in the elderly through the use of diuretics, inotropic drugs, neurohormonal antagonists, antiarrhythmic drugs, angioplasty, surgical therapy, cardiac resynchoronization therapy, exercise therapy, and use of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators are presented.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book sheds new light on the diagnosis and treatment of Heart Failure in adult patients with congenital heart disease. This is a rapidly growing clinical issue for this group of patients and the clinical teams caring for them. The book highlights the major clinical dilemmas in diagnosing heart failure in patients with a lifelong cardiac condition and describes in details the utility of biomarkers, complex imaging and functional tests, e.g. the cardiopulmonary exercise testing. A step-wise approach to treatment is described from drug therapy through to devices and transplantation. As such, the book offers an essential guide for cardiologists and cardiac surgeons looking to optimize the management of patients with delicate physiology and complex disease. 280 pp. Englisch

This new and improved edition of Success With Heart Failure gives readers enlightened and compassionate insight and important tips for treating this prevalent disease, including information on:--The similarities and differences between heart failure and heart attack--The role of heart transplantation to treat heart failure--State-of-the-art implantation treatments--The psychological effect of a prognosis of heart failure--The importance of a prescribed regimen of diet and exercise

There is little doubt that during the past decade heart failure has emerged as a growth industry within the healthcare systems of developed countries. Greater longevity and survival from previously faced cardiac events- two key markers of a combination of better public health initiatives-and dramatic changes in medical treatment have left us with a far more vulnerable population in whom heart failure has thrived. Meeting the need for a practical textbook on nursing care for heart failure patients, Caring for the Heart Failure Patient comprehensively covers the subject from pathophysiology to caring for the elderly. A dynamic team of experts writes on those aspects of heart failure care that concern allied health professionals. Written in a straightforward style, the book provides an overall view of the most salient and important features of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, treatment, and therapeutic management of the patient with heart failure. Topics include gender issues in heart failure, the role of exercise and activity, psychosocial aspects and the non-pharmacological management of heart failure.

The Concept of Heart Failure surveys the development of our ideas, both clinical and theoretical, on important aspects of cardiac and pulmonary disease, from the eleventh to the mid-eighteenth century. Before a unified and centralized concept of congestive heart failure was established, individual parts of the syndrome were regarded as discrete clinical entities. As a result, discussion of the syndrome is scattered throughout medieval and Renaissance literature. Dr. Saul Jarcho, a noted clinician and medical historian, renders a great service in gathering together many little known sources and, with rich commentaries on each author, making them accessible to the modern reader. His translations of Latin, Arabic, and other texts are fluent and skillful. With its thorough documentation, concluding overview, and appendix on the relation between suffocative catarrh and pulmonary edema, The Concept of Heart Failure will be a rich resource for clinicians and historians alike.

Heart failure is epidemic throughout the world. A growing incidence and prevalence has resulted in a large population of individuals transitioning to advanced stages of the syndrome and requiring uniquely specialised therapies and cardiac transplantation.Oxford Textbook of Advanced Heart Failure and Cardiac Transplantation is a focused and comprehensive work covering this new and rapidly growing cardiovascular subspecialty. Authored by eminent international experts, it is the authoritative text on advanced heart failure and a central resource for clinicians caring for patients with this conditition.By covering a range of characteristics, therapeutic challenges and practical aspects of managing patients this book provides an in-depth source for cardiologists and other related clinicians. A strong focus on the difficult decision making needed to handle advanced heart failure cases, along with specific knowledge of epidemiology, biology and pathophysiology, creates a key tool for optimally managing these complex patients.
