Heart failure

James B. Young

Written to provide the current understanding of this complex disease, as well as standard and emerging therapies to improve both the quality and quantity of life for patients. Basic epidemiology, disease prevention, and emerging drug therapies are reviewed, but it also reflects the much broader spectrum of treatment strategies that now includes surgical and electrophysiologic approaches. The textbook is liberally supplemented with graphic illustrations, clinical observations regarding patient care, and expertise reflecting the team approach to the care of these complex patients, which includes the social, nursing, and ethical aspects of care.
