lüll Drug therapy for chronic heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction: a scientific review I Introduction Carneiro AVRev Port Cardiol 2008[Jun]; 27 (6): 851-6Heart failure is a complex syndrome resulting from cardiac changes, structural or functional, that cause pump failure and consequently diminished cardiac output. Drug therapy improves patients' prognosis and, based on good-quality evidence, is safe and cost-effective. There are several drug classes that can be used in left ventricular dysfunction, so it may be useful to discuss their stratification and prioritization for clinical practice. This is the first of a series of papers that will present and discuss the most valid, important and applicable evidence on drug therapy in chronic heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction. We will not discuss acute heart failure (or decompensation of chronic heart failure) or non-pharmacologic treatments (implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, cardiac resynchronization therapy, heart transplantation, anti-platelet therapy, etc.).|Chronic Disease[MESH]|Heart Failure/*drug therapy/*etiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Ventricular Dysfunction, Left/*complications[MESH] |
