Impact and Implications of Neurocognitive Dysfunction in the Management of Ischemic Heart Failure

Journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions, Volume 2, 1 November 2023

Neurocognitive dysfunction is common in heart failure (HF), and is independently associated with worse outcomes including mortality, rehospitalization, and reduced quality of life.
