Clinical Challenges in Heart Failure
Description:
This volume is an innovative approach to the identification and management of heart failure. Contributing
experts have presented a number of problem scenarios, which might be difficult cases, complications or
dilemmas that challenge the skills of most practitioners. Organized as a series of questions, each chapter
presents a detailed yet accessible discussion of the problems posed. Carefully weighing the risks and
benefits of specific therapies, the ensuing discourse presents a fair, balanced approach to conceptual
controversies as well as exploring the diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas that may arise. Recent and
ongoing trials are discussed, as well as the potential impact on clinical practice of emerging therapies.
This book is designed for the busy clinical practitioner who is in search of authoritative discussion that is
balanced by evidence-based, best practice recommendations. It is intended as a resource for cardiologists
and primary care physicians.
