}Heart failure is common in adults, accounting for substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. Its prevalence is increasing because of ageing of the population and improved treatment of acute cardiovascular events, despite the efficacy of many therapies for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, such as angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), β blockers, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and advanced device therapies… CONTINUE READING

Interventional Clinical Trial
Heart failure (HF) affects 2-3% of the population, and is characterized by impaired sodium
balance which results in fluid overload. Ejection fraction, a measure of systolic function… Expand
