Abstract
Aim. To analyze the factors associated with the development of chronic heart failure (CHF) in older age and to evaluate possible approaches to managing outpatients.Material and methods. The search for domestic and foreign publications in Russian and international systems (PubMed, eLibrary, Medscape, etc.) for the last 0.5–15 years has been carried out. The analysis includes articles from the peer-reviewed literature.Results. During aging, a number of structural changes and changes at the cellular level occur in the cardiovascular system, predisposing to the development of myocardial dysfunction, which explains the variety of manifestations of heart failure and the prevalence of preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Involutional functional and morphological changes in organs and systems form multimorbidity and nonspecificity of clinical symptoms and signs. «Cross symptoms» of frailty and CHF often complicate the timely diagnosis of the heart failure. Medications used for the treatment of CHF in older and younger patients are similar, but when choosing a specific drug, caution should be exercised in the group of the most vulnerable patients: over the age of 85, in the first two weeks after discharge from the hospital and in the presence of frailty.Conclusion. Based on the available results of studies, it is necessary to be alert of primary care physicians regarding the presence of CHF with preserved LVEF in older persons with multimorbidity and geriatric syndromes. The therapeutic strategy for CHF older patients is complex and involves an individualized approach, depending on the clinical situation.
