Cardiology Q25
Management of Congestive Heart Failure (CHF):
Diuretics (e.g., furosemide)
: For symptomatic relief and to reduce volume overload.
ACE inhibitors (e.g., ramipril)
: First-line treatment to reduce symptoms and improve survival, particularly beneficial for diabetic patients.
Beta-blockers:
Added to the regimen if symptoms persist after initiating ACE inhibitors.
Spironolactone:
Added if symptoms persist despite optimal doses of ACE inhibitors (or ARBs) and beta-blockers.
Special Considerations:
Diabetes:
Start with ACE inhibitors due to their reno-protective properties.
Heart Failure with Atrial Fibrillation (HF + AF):
Consider adding digoxin.
