One of the most challenging scientific steps of the modern era has been the ability to replace, functionally or anatomically, the failing heart, and in December 2017 we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the worlds first human heart transplant. Despite a long and troubled hystory, heart transplantation has dramatically expanded over time, and is currently the gold standard solution in terms of treatment of refractory end-stage heart failure. Topics covered includes: Heart Transplant, Donor Heart Allocation, Heart Transplantation in the Era of the Left Ventricular Assist Devices, Surgical Management for Advanced Heart Failure in Adults with Congenital Heart Disease, Orthotopic Heart Transplantation, Heterotopic Heart Transplantation, Anesthesia and Intensive Care Management for Cardiac Transplantation, Graft Vascular Disease, Post-Heart Transplantation Lymphoproliferations, Cardiac Re-Transplantation.

The need for this guideline was identified as the NICE guidelines on chronic heart failure were being updated. We recognized at this time that there were important aspects of the diagnosis and management of acute heart failure that were not being addressed by the chronic heart failure guideline, which focussed on long term management rather than the immediate care of someone who is acutely unwell as a result of heart failure. The aim of this guideline is to provide guidance to the NHS on the diagnosis and management of acute heart failure. Topics covered includes: Diagnosis, assessment and monitoring, Initial pharmacological treatment, Initial non-pharmacological treatment, Treatment after stabilisation, Valvular surgery and percutaneous intervention, Mechanical assist devices.
