Congestive heart failure

Robert E Hobbs et al. Postgrad Med. 1994 Nov.

Abstract

Preview Patients with congestive heart failure generally have a poor prognosis, and sudden death is common. Concepts of management have changed drastically through the years, in hopes that predisposing factors can be modified. In this article, Drs Hobbs and Czerska give an overview of the problem and examine the status of pharmacologic therapy and various surgical techniques.
