Too much aldosterone can stiffen and damage the muscles of the heart. Dutch researcher Luc Roumen has optimised compounds that inhibit the production of this hormone and looked at their optimum dosage. The compounds were manufactured by the companies Schering-Plough and SyMO-Chem BV and a drug patent has been applied for. http://www.huliq.com/11/70671/new-therapy-heart-failure#comments Health heart failure heart failure treatment Wed, 15 Oct 2008 11:51:08 -0500 harminka 70671 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/70244/implantable-device-manage-congestive-heart-failure-symptoms Northwestern Memorial’s Bluhm Cardiovascular Institute is one of seven programs in the country participating in new study aimed at improving the heart’s pumping action and helping to manage congestive heart failure symptoms. http://www.huliq.com/11/70244/implantable-device-manage-congestive-heart-failure-symptoms#comments Health congestive heart failure heart failure medical implants Thu, 09 Oct 2008 02:13:35 -0500 harminka 70244 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/68606/physical-exams-just-good-assessing-heart-failure Patient history and physical examination, traditionally the cornerstone diagnostic tool for medical care, may still be among the most accurate and cost-efficient methods to assess patients with congestive heart failure, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have found. http://www.huliq.com/11/68606/physical-exams-just-good-assessing-heart-failure#comments Health heart failure Wed, 17 Sep 2008 07:09:39 -0500 harminka 68606 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/68466/2-beta-blockers-found-also-protect-heart-tissue A newly discovered chemical pathway that helps protect heart tissue can be stimulated by two of 20 common beta-blockers, drugs that are prescribed to millions of patients who have experienced heart failure. http://www.huliq.com/11/68466/2-beta-blockers-found-also-protect-heart-tissue#comments Health heart failure Mon, 15 Sep 2008 10:16:08 -0500 harminka 68466 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/67509/heart-failure-implementation The guidelines are developed through a rigorous process involving a task force of 15 experts in the field and a review committee of 21 international authorities. http://www.huliq.com/11/67509/heart-failure-implementation#comments Health heart failure Tue, 02 Sep 2008 14:34:36 -0500 harminka 67509 at http://www.huliq.com
