摘要： Introduction
Heart failure (HF) is a major clinical manifestation of many cardiac disease processes when the cardiovascular compensatory mechanisms fail.Five million patients suffer from HF with an additional 555,000 new patients diagnosed HF annually.Moreover,there are an estimated 400,000 to 460,000 deaths attributable to sudden cardiac death (SCD) in the United States each year.Mortality in the heart failure population is about six to seven times higher than that of the agematched general population.
