Fight Against Heart Failure^SM is an educational program developed by the American Association of Heart Failure Nurses, the Preventive Cardiovascular Nurses Association, and the Society of Chest Pain Centers, and is sponsored by Scios Inc.

This program is designed to:

• Promote awareness of the signs and symptoms of heart failure; and
• Help heart failure patients and their caregivers learn about the four key ways to manage heart failure symptoms to stay healthy and out of the hospital:
  1. Diet
  2. Exercise
  3. Lifestyle Changes
  4. Medication

Through the campaign Web site and downloadable educational materials, we provide practical, easy-to-read information to help heart failure patients monitor and control their symptoms.

We encourage heart failure patients to play an active role in their treatment and learn how they can help to Fight Against Heart Failure.

The Web site and educational materials of the Fight Against Heart Failure^SM program are not meant to provide medical advice. Also, the information provided through this program is not a substitute for professional healthcare. Talk with your doctor or other clinician to learn more about your own diagnosis, treatment, or condition.
