Heart Failure Treatment

Heart failure means the heart cannot pump blood strongly enough to meet the body's needs — but with the right, modern treatment it is highly manageable. Dr. Benny Jose designs personalised plans that ease symptoms, protect the heart and help patients return to an active, confident life.

Common symptoms of heart failure

• Breathlessness during activity or when lying flat
• Swelling in the legs, ankles or abdomen
• Persistent tiredness and reduced stamina
• Rapid or irregular heartbeat
• A cough or wheeze, sometimes worse at night

What causes heart failure

The most common causes are coronary artery disease (blockages or a previous heart attack), long-standing high blood pressure, and diabetes. Other causes include heart-valve disease, cardiomyopathy, irregular rhythms and congenital conditions. Identifying the exact cause is the key to effective treatment.

How Dr. Benny treats heart failure

Treatment combines proven medications, lifestyle and dietary guidance, and — where needed — procedures such as angioplasty, device therapy or valve intervention to address the underlying cause. With close monitoring and a caring, step-by-step approach, most patients see real, lasting improvement in how they feel.
