A Comparative Research on Conservative and Device Treatments in Chronic Heart Failure

Being a very common condition among the whole population of the world, often leading a life-threatening illness and having high risk and mortality rate, chronic heart failure (CHF) is also a major public health problem for the world [1]. Our goal is to investigate what has been achieved in the treatment of CHF patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 40% recent years. In recent years, it is revealed that BNP has been crucial in the pathogenesis of heart disease. Due to this reason, we tried to investigate the results of the complex medical treatment method performed with the combination of sacubitril / valsartan which is angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor in CHF patients. We also investigated the device treatment methods used in the treatment of these patients, particularly the cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

Finally, we investigated the results of the complex medical treatment method performed with the combination of sacubitril / valsartan which is angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor in comparison with the those of the cardiac resynchronization therapy. Patients treated in this way (with CRT) are forced to stop their labor activity even for a short period of time. Moreover, the CRTs are far more expensive than conservative treatment.
