Background Therapy

Ivabradine slows down the heart rate through a blockade of the funny current channels in the sinoatrial node cells. The efficacy of the drug was tested in a large outcome clinical trial in stable chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, in sinus rhythm, on a contemporary background therapy including beta blockers.

Subjective State

Heart failure is defined as a clinical state, which occurs as a result of structural or functional damage of ventricle with consequential blood hypo perfusion of organs (reduced stroke volume of heart muscle and/or increased intracardial pressure in rest or during work activity). Therapeutical monitoring of patient is imperative, and it includes assessment of objective and subjective state of patient, which is often guide for optimizing of pharmacological treatment. The aim of paper is assessment of the room wall color influence as one of the factor for optimizing the therapeutic modality of patients with diagnosis of heart failure. Findings suggest that the influence of color in environment can be neutral, enabling or disabling, and this is the aspect of treatment that needs to be investigated further in future.
