• Understanding chronic heart failure (CHF):
Definition, classification, diagnosis, risk
factors/comorbidities, epidemiology
• Pathophysiology of CHF – role of sympathetic overdrive
• CHF – therapeutic options particularly regarding
Clinical definition
Heart failure is a clinical syndrome with typical symptoms and signs resulting from an abnormality of cardiac
structure or function.2-4
È typical symptoms breathlessness, ankle swelling, and fatigue
è
typical signs fluid retention such as pulmonary congestion, elevated
jugular venous pressure, pulmonary crackles, peripheral edema
Many of the signs of (congestive) heart failure may resolve quickly with diuretic therapy 1

Heart failure survival rates
Despite improvements in care over the past 20 years survival rates for patients admitted to a hospital with
heart failure remain poor across the globe.1
The survival rates for HF are worse than for most cancers, e.g. those for bowel, breast or prostate cancer. 1
Using data from a national registry in Sweden the following 5-year mortality rates were found:2
− all cancers on average: 58%
lung cancer: 83%, breast cancer: 23%
lung, colorectal, prostate, bladder are the most common forms of cancer representing 50% of all cancers
− heart failure: 59%

Neurohormonal and compensatory mechanisms in the pathophysiology of heart failure 1
Heart failure
Decreased stroke volume and cardiac output
Neurohormonal response
• Vasoconstriction: increased sympathetic tone, angiotensin II, endothelins, impaired nitric oxide
release
• Sodium and fluid retention: increased vasopressin and aldosterone
