Heart failure remains a significant burden to the US healthcare system and contributes greatly to the morbidity and mortality of the population. The impact of an ageing population, improved survival in coronary artery disease (CAD) and adverse life-style choices will ultimately result in an increased burden on an already taxed health care system.
Heart failure affects over 5 million people with…

Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome characterised by the reduced ability of the heart to pump and/or fill with blood.1,2 From a physiological point of view, HF can be defined as an inadequate cardiac output to meet metabolic demands or adequate cardiac output secondary to compensatory neurohormonal activation (generally manifesting as increased left ventricular filling pressure).2…

The prevalence of major depression in chronic heart failure (HF) is about 20–40 %, which is 4–5 % higher than in the normal population.1–3 Depression in heart failure has become a major issue as the burden of heart failure has continued to increase, and many studies have suggested poorer outcomes in HF patients reporting depression.4–8 The cost of managing HF has continued to escalate, and high…

Heart Failure
In developed countries, approximately 1–2 % of the adult population has heart failure (HF), and the prevalence of this cardiovascular disease increases with age.1,2 HF can occur in the presence or absence of reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), known as HF with reduced ejection fraction (HF-rEF) and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HF-pEF), respectively. The most…
