This is a Reprint of the Special Issue Clinical Management of Patients with Heart Failure—2nd Edition that was published in
One of the world-wide leading causes for increased morbidity and mortality is heart failure, which also leads to increased costs for the healthcare systems. It usually evolves with repeated episodes of decompensation, representing one of the most frequent reasons for hospitalization in the cardiology or internal medicine units but also aggravating the course of other pathologies. Even in its more stable form, chronic heart failure may affect patients' wellbeing and quality of life, impacting their level of activity and reducing their ability to practice self-care, as well as generating socio-economic consequences for patients and their families. This Special Issue focuses on original articles, reviews, meta-analyses and case reports carrying out groundbreaking research regarding the clinical management of heart failure.
