This document discusses heart failure, its causes, symptoms, and treatments. It notes that heart failure is a growing concern, with more than 20 million cases worldwide. While treatments like diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and beta blockers are used, aldosterone levels remain high in many patients. The document examines the role of the aldosterone antagonist eplerenone in improving outcomes for heart failure and resistant hypertension patients when added to standard therapy.
