摘要
This article provides information and a commentary on trials relevant to the pathophysiology, prevention, and treatment of heart failure presented at the annual meeting of the European Society of Cardiology held in Barcelona in 2009. The AAA study does not support the routine use of aspirin for the prevention of vascular events in patients with asymptomatic atherosclerosis. RELY suggests that dabigatran may be more effective than warfarin for the prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Rolofylline was not superior to placebo in improving outcomes in patients with acute heart failure enrolled in the PROTECT study, but dyspnoea was improved. Data from ACTIVE-I suggest that irbesartan does not provide additional therapeutic benefit in patients with atrial fibrillation who are well controlled on current therapy. The European cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) survey provides interesting epidemiological data on current CRT device usage. The German pre-SCD II registry identified a low prevalence of patients with a reduced ejection fraction following myocardial infarction. Implantation of CRT-D rather than an implantable cardioverter defibrillator in patients with mild heart failure and QRS >= 130 ms reduced the risk of hospitalization for heart failure in MADIT-CRT; mortality was similarly low with each device.
