    1. Introduction
 
Over 2 million Americans suffer from heart failure and more than 200 000 die annually. The incidence is estimated to be 400 000 per year with a prevalence of over 4.5 million, numbers that will increase with the aging of the US population [1]. Despite remarkable improvements in medical therapy the prognosis of patients with myocardial failure remains poor with over 15% of patients dying within 1 year of initial diagnosis and greater than 80% 6 year mortality [2]. Of the deaths in patients with heart failure, up to 50% are sudden and unexpected.

The failing heart undergoes a complex series of changes in both myocyte and non-myocyte elements. In an attempt to compensate for the reduction in cardiac function the sympathetic nervous (SNS), renin–angiotensin–aldosterone (RAAS) systems and other neurohumoral mechanisms are activated. The altered signal transduction in heart failure initiates changes in gene expression that produce myocyte . . . [Full Text of this Article]
