Resumen

Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a major problem in our setting, affecting 1%-2% of the adult population in developed countries, and whose prevalence exceeds 10% in those over the age of 70. Treatment of CHF aims to improve functional class, quality of life, prevent hospitalisation and reduce mortality. It is important to distinguish patients with CHF and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HF with rLVEF less than 40%) from those with mid-range (HF with mLVEF, 40%-50%) or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (pLVEF, greater than 50%), as there are significant implications for pharmacological treatment. Management of these patients is complex, especially those with reduced LVEF, and often requires a multidisciplinary approach in CHF units that combine different specialties such as cardiology, internal medicine, nephrology, cardiac surgery, rehabilitation, geriatrics, and palliative care.
