Abstract :
[en] Heart failure constitutes a major public health problem. Its incidence continues to grow and its prognosis remains poor. Therapeutic approach of chronic heart failure with left ventricular systolic dysfunction is well codified. Recommended medical treatment is presented with the description of the different therapeutic classes. Recent advances are discussed. New therapeutic targets are described. Optimization of recognized treatment and application to heart failure of drugs used for other indications are developed. Therapeutic approach of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is tackled but stays far less well defined. Many studies concerning treatment of acute heart failure are ongoing.
