Heart failure is the only cardiovascular disease that is increasing. The impact on the critical care environment and the health care system, as a whole, is significant from both a cost and burden to the system perspective. There are 6.5 million hospital days a year and nearly $40 billion dollars in yearly health care costs attributed to heart failure in the United States. There are more Medicare monies spent for diagnosing and treating heart failure than any other Diagnosis Related Group. There is a 24% hospital re-admission rate for this diagnosis which leads to financial implications for health care systems. The human cost is also significant. Less than half of Americans diagnosed with heart failure survive greater than 5 years. The ongoing health care needs and cost of this chronic disease takes a significant toll on patients’ finances, time and quality of life. Over $2.9 billion dollars is spent annually on the pharmaceutical management of heart failure in the United States. This diagnosis is the leading cause of hospitalization for patients who are 65 years of age and older. Few health care providers in the critical care environment are not affected by heart failure on a routine basis. Caring for these patients and their families is both a challenging and yet a rewarding experience. This edition will provide critical care nurses with a comprehensive heart failure review which is essential in caring for this challenging population given the dynamic health and critical care environments.

For many years, there has been a great deal of work done on chronic congestive heart failure while acute heart failure has been considered a difficult to handle and hopeless syndrome. However, in recent years acute heart failure has become a growing area of study and this is the first book to cover extensively the diagnosis and management of this complex condition. The book reflects the considerable amounts of new data reported and many new concepts which have been proposed in the last 3-4 years looking at the epidemiology, diagnostic and treatment of acute heart failure.

Nationwide, approximately 4.1 million Americans suffer from chronic heart failure accounting for estimated direct and indirect costs of over $21 billion spent annually for health care. The incidence of heart failure has doubled each decade since the 1940's and slightly more men were inflicted with the illness. This trend changed three years ago, with a decline in the overall incidence of heart failure and a slight predominance of the illness in women rather than men. The incidence of this condition was reduced in males nearly three times that of females. Women survive longer after diagnosis, however they are hospitalized more, and they have more symptoms and a poorer quality of life. There is a significant gender gap in scientific and therapeutic progress made with heart failure. Most research and clinical trials were conducted using primarily male subjects, and then findings applied to women. The heightening trends in women with heart failure question whether findings from this research are beneficial for women. Until new scientific and therapeutic advances are developed using research with female participants, women with heart failure are destined to living with their illness and current therapies. In light of these issues, a grounded theory study was completed that explored women's experiences with chronic heart failure. A postmodern feminist lens informed a critical analysis of the literature, research procedures, methods to achieve rigor, and the discussion of findings. Data collection using participant observation and interviewing occurred in two major Naval Medical Centers. Dimensional analysis was used as a method of data analysis to generate a theoretical model exploring the phenomenon under study. Two parsimonious dimensions, network and health care emerged as the most salient. A social network was instrumental for women in their journey of finding out they had heart failure, through a process of psychosocial remodeling to living with chronic heart failure. This network was significant in helping women overcome challenges of lifestyle changes, health care and illness management. The heart failure management approach, provider-client relationships and communication influenced women's physical and psychosocial health and satisfaction with their health care. Experiences with health care inspired women to send messages to other women and health care providers as recommendations for improved health care practices and illness management for women with chronic heart failure. Historical and social perspectives, and gender issues in pathophysiology, therapies and provider-client relationships must inform nursing practice for women with chronic heart failure. Partnerships and multidisciplinary health care approaches, such as a heart failure clinic were popular among this sample and are recommended for women with chronic heart failure. Possibilities for research that stem from this study are vast.

Despite media attention and public awareness, recent advances in pharmaceutical and medical developments, heart disease in women is under-diagnosed, under-treated, and under-managed. Many women fail to present in the clinic when symptomatic, because of responsibilities at home or at work. Often the first presentation follows a cardiac event. Women are excluded from many clinical trials regardless of age or cardiac history, simply because most trials are aimed at male patients. This best-selling, updated title, aimed at changing this treatment of women's cardiac issues, covers all aspects of female cardiovascular disease. It is required reading for all practitioners who assess female patients.
