MODERN OPPORTUNITIES FOR TREATMENT OF PATIENT HAVING CHRONIC HEART FAILURE WITH LOW EJECTION FRACTION
Worldwide, the prevalence of chronic heart failure (CHF) is increasing every year, representing a serious medical and social problem. Medicinal drugs can help manage the symptoms of CHF and improve the prognosis in patients, but often the use of drug therapy alone may not be enough. Modern approaches to the treatment of CHF with low ejection fraction (CHFnEF), in addition to drug therapy, also include the use of various electrophysiological methods: implantation of cardioresynchronizing devices, cardioverter defibrillators, interventional treatment of arrhythmias. Article presents an analysis of a clinical case of successful treatment of a comorbid patient with severe CHFrEF using optimal drug therapy, as well as such interventional cardiac surgical interventions as implantation of a cardioresynchronization device with defibrillator function and radiofrequency ablation of arrhythmogenic heart zones
