Treatment For Sleep Apnea Shows Promise In Reducing Deaths From Congestive Heart Failure:"The London (Ontario) Health Sciences Centre, LHSC Sleep Clinic is participating in a prestigious nationwide study led by respirologist Dr. Kathleen Ferguson. The study will determine whether a novel treatment for central sleep apnea can reduce death rates and improve the quality of life for patients suffering from congestive heart failure."

Prognosis (Outlook):

Congestive Heart Failure Is Generally Treatable, Cardiovascular Institute of the South:"Congestive heart failure is the term used to describe the inability of the heart to pump as much blood as the body needs. Its symptoms are widespread -- weakness, shortness of breath, swelling in the legs, abdominal discomfort or pain, and a loss of appetite."

Reference:

Effect Of Amlodipine On Morbidity And Mortality In Severe Chronic Heart Failure:"Many calcium channel blockers have been noted to adversely affect patients with congestive heart failure and are generally avoided in severe CHF. It is unclear whether this problem extends to all such agents; preliminary studies have suggested that amlodipine might be safe in CHF."

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."
