Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Heart failure represents a significant medical condition that imposes a substantial burden on both individuals and healthcare systems worldwide. This burden consists of high rates of hospitalization, reduced quality of life, and increased mortality rates.
The proper evaluation and treatment of heart failure are important to improve quality of life and extend survival.
The management of heart failure is still heterogenous, the adherence to guidelines is still poor, and there is large variability in the medical approach in different countries. Meanwhile, new non-pharmacologic therapies have emerged and gained popularity in certain countries.
In this Special Issue we would like to focus on the comprehensive evaluation and management of heart failure, including non-pharmacological therapy, like heart surgery, electrophysiology procedures, device implantation, and percutaneous coronary interventions, starting with ethical concerns and moving to practical issues.
We also wish to integrate the role of clinical medicine’s assistance and its function in adhering to social-distancing guidelines, and we would like to invite the submission of research articles and reviews.
We encourage young researchers, doctoral students, and post-doc fellows to submit their research to this Special Issue to gain visibility and recognition of their work.
