In the recently completed COMPANION trial, cardiac resynchronization therapy (pacing both the left ventricle as well as the right ventricle) has been shown to improve mortality in individuals with NYHA class III or IV heart failure with a widened QRS complex onEKG.2 Delaying the progression of he...
Eligible patients include those with ischemic and nonischemic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association class III or VI) and with 10 or more ventricular premature beats per hour. All patients must have shortness of breath with minimal exertion or paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, a left ...
This study examined the effect of congestive heart failure (CHF) on immune responses to influenza vaccination (2000–2001 preparation) in three groups of older adults including healthy, Class II and Class III/IV CHF. Serum antibody titers measured by hemagglutination inhibition (HI), and interferon...
In 30 individuals with class III congestive heart failure (CHF), negative feedback of 4 cardiac peptide hormones, ie, long-acting natriuretic peptide (LANP), vessel dilator, kaliuretic peptide, and atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) from the same 126-amino acid (aa) prohormone were studied with...
These drugs represent a new drug class for antihypertensive therapy but also have been used in the management of congestive heart failure. The renin-angiotensin system is involved in the physiology of congestive heart failure. The primary active hormone of this system is angiotensin II, a powerful...

This prospective study of 200 stable outpatients with New York Hospital Association (NYHA) class III congestive heart failure on maximal medical therapy was done to determine which factors affect survival, to record the incidence of sudden death, and to identify prognostic features which characterize ...
