| description | Heart failure poses a significant challenge to healthcare systems and society at large, mainly due to its increasing prevalence among the aging population and its association with frequent hospitalizations with high mortality rates. At its core, heart failure management seeks to emphasize myocardial recovery across the spectrum of disease, from acute cardiogenic shock to ambulatory heart failure, with care ranging from consideration of mechanical circulatory support to medication optimization. In this review, we propose a definition of “recovery” that extends beyond the restoration of normal myocardial dynamics to the entire human organism, ultimately improving functional capacity and clinical outcomes. Prioritizing this more holistic definition of “recovery” allows a broader representation of the spectrum of disease and corresponding management that falls under the “heart failure” umbrella. In so doing, a more synchronized delivery of care across settings and disciplines may be feasible for the modern patient living with heart failure. |
