Acute Heart Failure

Acute Heart Failure

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.
