Take-home message Coronary artery disease is the underlying cause in approximately two thirds of patients with heart failure with depressed systolic function Angina is a simple predictor of ischemia, but heart failure patients are often asymptomatic with regard to ischemic symptoms (dyspnoea may be the leading symptom) Ischemia is an independent predictor of death / MI in HF patients

Take-home message (cont.) Assessment of myocardial viability is of utmost importance to detect ischemic but viable myocardium for potential coronary interventions Revascularization (PCI/CABG) is the best method to decreased the risk of death in HF patients with persistent myocardial ischemia. In CABG patients the benefits of coronary artery revascularization need to be balanced against the risks of surgery, which can be substantial in the presence of severe HF
