Enhanced External Counterpulsation in Chronic Heart Failure: Where Do We Stand?
Heart failure has been known as an increasing health burden worldwide and the prevalence is expected to rise more than 23 million in 2030. Chronic heart failure has characteristic of ventricular dysfunction which will cause dyspnea, fatique, and finally some limitation in functional capacity and red...
