Emory cardiologists can help prevent Heart Failure

By admin | July 9, 2008

heart failure, which affects people of all ages, occurs when the heart loses its ability to pump blood through the body. Symptoms of congestive heart failure includes but is not limited to: fatigue, shortness of breath, swelling of the feet/legs, loss of appetite and a swollen abdomen. With nearly 5 million Americans currently living with congestive heart failure, it is no surprise that Emory has Centers for Heart Failure Therapy. Emory cardiologists have the largest clinical experience in evaluating and implanting biventricular pacemakers — devices which offer hope to many people with severe CHF. In addition these cardiologists are currently involved in a number of clinical trials and studies of cardiac rehabilitation treatment strategies.
