Internal Medicine Journal, 10/21/09
Thavapalachandran S et al. – There is substantial underuse of device therapy in patients with heart failure. Strikingly, whereas patients with symptoms of heart failure were more likely to receive a device, those being managed for ischaemic heart disease were not. There is also a high prevalence of failure to prescribe evidence–based pharmacotherapy in a tertiary hospital general cardiology clinic. This may be explained in part by the lack of a patient database to record treatment contraindications and to alert clinicians to possible gaps in patient therapy.
