Living with Heart Failure
by Susan Elliot-Wright
An estimated 900,000 people are currently living with heart failure in the UK, a figure that is set to increase as the population ages.
Once established, the condition tends to persist; however, modern drugs such as ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers can be very effective in helping to manage it. Lifestyle factors, including healthy eating and weight control can also help to delay the progress of heart failure and achieve a better quality of life and health. Living with Heart Failure is a practical and informative guide for those lives and loved ones affected by this condition.
Susan Elliot-Wright is a freelance writer and journalist specializing in health and parenting. Since training as a journalist she has written for a number of magazines and newspapers and is the author of four health books.
