Abstract

Chronic heart failure (CHF) is an important healthcare problem because of high prevalence, morbidity and mortality rates. Treatment resistant symptoms, need for communication and support, unite patients with CHF and oncological diseases but despite that CHF patients rarely receive specialized palliative care (SPC). This review is devoted to the need and possible ways of providing SPC to patients with CHF and their families. We discuss here variants of CHF course in terminal phase, the term end of life appropriate care, various specialists’ concepts of SPC delivering to CHF patients in accordance with their preferences.
