[Innovations in pharmacological treatment of heart failure].

The main goal of the heart failure treatment is the decrease of mortality and morbidity, especially improvement of quality of life and decrease of hospitalisations. ACE inhibitors are the cornerstone of the treatment, MRA should be added to ACEI. Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) are indicated in the case of ACE inhibitors intolerance. Betablockers in maximal tolerated doses should be added to the renin angiotensin blockade. Diuretics are given to the symptoms relieve - dyspnoe or oedema. Digoxin is indicated in selected patients. There are 3 new promising groups of drugs: (1) Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibitor - ARNI - Sacubitril/Valsartan can replace the ACEI according to the results of the PARADIGM-HF trial. (2) Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in patients with diabetes mellitus. (3) A hughe clinical research is done with omecamtiv mecarbil and others perspective drugs.
