Even though great strides have been made in diagnosis and treatment, the prognosis remains poor for people with heart failure. Average life expectancy is less than five years in patients with symptomatic heart failure, while 90 percent of those with advanced disease have survival rates of a year. Even though survival is limited, various studies show that people with heart failure often believe their prognosis is actually better than it is.
In fact, over 5 million adults in the United States experience heart failure. Heart failure occurs when the heart muscle becomes damaged and can no longer pump blood effectively. Although symptoms can be managed, this is a chronic condition with no cure. In time, patients will reach the final stages of congestive heart failure. Patients in the end stages of heart failure want to know what to expect. The symptoms of end-stage congestive heart failure include dyspnea, chronic cough or wheezing, edema, nausea or lack of appetite, a high heart rate, and confusion or impaired thinking.
