Congestive heart failure, a condition caused by a malfunctioning heart that is unable to pump enough blood and oxygen to meet the body’s needs, is an increasingly important cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. With improvements in the care of other cardiac conditions, more patients have developed dilated cardiomyopathy, which is the final common pathway for many cardiac illnesses and a common cause of congestive heart failure.
