Abstract
Heart Failure (HF) is a complicated, fatal medical condition that poses a severe threat to human life. It is a complex ailment that can lead to death and is associated with high healthcare costs, significant morbidity and mortality rates, and a reduction in functional capacity and quality of life. Recent data analysis reveals that approximately 64million people worldwide are affected by HF.1 Patients with HFrEF can benefit from cardiac contractility modulation (CCM), a revolutionary device-based treatment. In patients with HFrEF, CCM treatment has been associated with an improvement in exercise tolerance, an improvement in quality of life, a decrease in HF hospitalizations, and a reversal remodeling of the left ventricle. In this instance, we describe the therapeutic benefit of CCM in an elderly individual with advanced HFrEF triggered by ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy who frequently required hospitalization for heart failure-related issues and had a low quality of life despite receiving the best possible guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT).
