Comments

“Our ageing population and an increased number of older people living with coronary artery disease and other chronic cardiac conditions such as hypertension and atrial fibrillation are having a detrimental effect on the number of people being affected by heart failure.” These modules provide information to support your  understanding of the pathophysiology and treatment goals of heart failure, and how to have a conversation with patients, their family and caregivers about their chronic illness.
