History of Acute Heart Failure Treatments by NovartisNewsroom is a document available to read on EtoBox.

There have been few advances in the treatment of acute heart failure (AHF) over the past few decades. Many current therapies for AHF were introduced in the 1970s and include diuretics, vasodilators, intravenous nitrates, and inotropes. While treatments help manage symptoms like fluid buildup and shortness of breath, new therapies are still needed to directly improve patient outcomes and survival for those experiencing AHF episodes.
