Novel Therapeutic Devices in Heart Failure.

ABSTRACT: Heart failure (HF) constitutes a significant clinical problem and is associated with a sizeable burden for the healthcare system. Numerous novel techniques, including device interventions, are investigated to improve clinical outcome. A review of the most notable currently studied devices targeting pathophysiological processes in HF was performed. Interventions regarding autonomic nervous system imbalance, i.e., baroreflex activation therapy; vagus, splanchnic and cardiopulmonary nerves modulation; respiratory disturbances, i.e., phrenic nerve stimulation and synchronized diaphragmatic therapy; decongestion management, i.e., the Reprieve system, transcatheter renal venous decongestion system, Doraya, preCardia, WhiteSwell and Aquapass, are presented. Each segment is divided into subsection
