Content Inside:
THE Chronic heart failure is one of the most frequent illnesses in the elderly. Particularly endangered are older patients with long-existing hypertension, those who have had heart attacks or have coronary heart disease, strokes or diabetes mellitus. Heart failure exists when the pumping capacity of the heart is impaired to such an extent that the body is no longer adequately supplied with blood and consequently with nutrients and oxygen on physical effort or, in severe cases, even at rest. Heart failure is a progressive and thus chronic disease, which frequently develops slowly and initially without symptoms.
