"Overall, this is a wonderful resource for practicing physicians in internal medicine and cardiology. It is a great reference for diagnosing, treating, and managing heart failure patients in both inpatient and clinic settings." -Rohini Manaktala, D.O. (Ochsner Clinic Foundation) for Doody's Review Service
Up-to-date, authoritative and comprehensive, Heart Failure, 4th Edition, provides the clinically relevant information you need to effectively manage and treat patients with this complex cardiovascular problem. This fully revised companion to Braunwald’s Heart Disease helps you make the most of new drug therapies such as angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitors (ARNIs), recently improved implantable devices, and innovative patient management strategies. Led by internationally recognized heart failure experts Dr. G. Michael Felker and Dr. Douglas Mann, this outstanding reference gives health care providers the knowledge to improve clinical outcomes in heart failure patients.
