CLINICAL APPROACHES TO INTERPRETATION OF CLINICAL TRAILS RESULTS ON BETA-BLOCKERS FOR THE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE

Abstract
Modern approaches to a choice of beta-blockers for treatment of patients with chronic heart failure depending on the statistical and clinical significance of randomized clinical trails results are considered. Beta-blocker «class-effect» is discussed in context of beta-blocker therapeutic tactics. Data about bisoprolol usage for prevention of sudden death in patients with left ventricle systolic dysfunction is also presented.
