Molecular Changes in Heart Failure -- Hemodynamics and Heart Failure -- Imaging and Heart Failure -- Acute and Chronic Right Ventricular Failure -- Inhibition of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System -- Inhibition of the Sympathetic Nervous System -- Management of the Patient with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction -- Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: Classification, Epidemiology and Pathophysiology -- Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: Presentation, Physical Exam, and Laboratory Evaluation -- Acute Decompensated Heart Failure -Treatment Guidelines -- Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: Treatment - Specific Therapies -- Acute Decompensated Heart Failure - Treatment with Guideline Determined Medical Therapy and Discharge Planning -- Cardiac-Oncology: Management of the Patient with Heart Failure after Chemotherapy -- Atrial Arrhythmias and Heart Failure -- Ventricular Arrhythmias and Heart Failure -- Cardiac Defibrillators and Heart Failure -- Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Heart Failure -- Revascularization and Heart Failure -- Valve Repair and Replacement in Congestive Heart Failure Patient Selection for Cardiac Transplantation -- Pathophysiology of the Alloimmune Response and Immunosuppression -- Antibody-Mediated Rejection -- Infections After Cardiac Transplantation -- Post-Transplant Complications--Hypertension, Renal Dysfunction, Diabetes Mellitus, Malignancy, Arrhythmias, Osteoporosis, Sexual Dysfunction -- Patient Selection -- Acute Mechanical Circulatory Support -- Mechanical Circulatory Support as a Bridge to Heart Transplantation -- Medical Management of the Patient with Chronic Mechanical Circulatory Support -- The Total Artificial Heart -- Physiology of Stem Cells -- Stem Cell Therapy in Heart Failure -- Origins of Quality Metrics -- Exercise and Patients with Heart Failure -- Heart Failure Management and Development of Heart Failure Programs -- Inflammation and Heart Failure.

This book elucidates the etiology of heart failure (HF) to assist understanding in the clinical therapies available. It explains these in light of the better understanding of the pathophysiology of HF, which has translated into dramatic improvements in patient outcome. The chapters detail the causes, diagnosis and treatment of HF, and recognize that having become the leading cause of morbidity, mortality and hospitalization in the developed world, even patients with the most advanced HF have options that allow prolonged survival. This includes alternatives to cardiac transplantation, including mechanical circulatory support with a rapidly growing number of new, smaller, more reliable devices becoming available. Heart Failure: A Comprehensive Guide to Pathophysiology and Clinical Care will be critical reading for all involved in the management of these patients and provides a scientific and clinical reference for trainees in cardiovascular disease as well as physicians involved in caring for these patients.
