Summary

Preventing heart failure (HF) deterioration is a great challenge for contemporary medicine. The progress course of HF is with increasing frequency of subsequent hospitalizations (approximately 30% of hospitalizations are the repeated ones). It is estimated that the costs of hospital stays constitute nearly 2/3 of healthcare costs provided for HF patients. The difficulty in treatment of patients with HF deterioration is associated with numerous comorbidities and coexisting complications (i.e. aggravation of ischaemic heart disease, lung diseases, infections, electrolyte disturbances, anaemia, renal failure as well as operations, in particular emergency ones). Our study is aimed to evaluation the complex pathophysiological background related to heart failure deterioration with respect to the effect of applied in-hospital treatment.
