dc.description.abstract	Heart failure has been recognized as the most prevailing burden on the health care sectors worldwide. Recently, several countries, especially the high-income countries, have tried to establish health care programs in order to capture a comprehensive management of heart failure. This is being done through the emphasis on considering that heart failure management needs a specialized holistic care through the foundation of multi-disciplinary disease management program including a heart failure physician specialist and a heart failure nurse specialist. The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) through the Heart Failure Association (HFA) in addition to the American Heart Association and the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) established evidence-based guidelines for proper management of the heart failure. Based on these guidelines, the quality of practice can be measured, standardized and developed.
