Heart Failure Management – Advanced Care for a Stronger, Healthier Heart

Heart Failure Management focuses on improving heart function, relieving symptoms, and enhancing quality of life for patients whose heart is unable to pump blood effectively. With early diagnosis, advanced treatment strategies, and continuous monitoring, heart failure can be successfully managed and stabilized.

Under the expert leadership of Dr. Ajay Kaul, Chairman – Fortis Heart Institute, patients receive comprehensive and personalized care using the latest advancements in cardiac medicine and surgery.

What is Heart Failure?

Heart failure does not mean the heart has stopped working. It means the heart is weakened or stiff and cannot pump blood efficiently to meet the body’s needs. It may develop due to:

  • Coronary artery disease
  • Previous heart attack
  • Valve disorders
  • Cardiomyopathy
  • Congenital heart defects

If left untreated, heart failure can progressively worsen and lead to serious complications.

Common Symptoms

  • Shortness of breath
  • Swelling in legs or abdomen
  • Fatigue and weakness
  • Rapid or irregular heartbeat
  • Difficulty lying flat due to breathlessness
  • Sudden weight gain due to fluid retention

Early evaluation significantly improves long-term outcomes.
