A member asked:
Is congestive heart failure reversible? if so, how
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: The outcome of heart failure depends on the cause, the treatment, and probably on the genetics of the patient. There are causes of CHF that are completely reversible, if the cause can be identified and treated. Also, proper medical management of the heart failure can promote reverse remodeling of the heart muscle and greatly improve the long-term outcomes. Find a heart failure cardiologist.
