The specialists at the Norton Heart &amp; Vascular Institute Advanced Heart Failure &amp; Recovery Program prove it every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For patients whose heart failure wasn\u2019t caused by blockages or heart attack, we cure more than 50% of heart failure cases with medication when we can treat it early. Nationally, the benchmark is 10%.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"card float-xl-end ms-xl-3  w-xl-35\">\n\t<div class=\"card-body text-center\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"fa-classic fa-regular fa-heart-pulse fa-3x text-primary mb-3\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<h4 id=\"h-have-you-ever-wondered-how-healthy-your-heart-is\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Have you ever wondered how healthy your heart is?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take a two-minute heart health risk assessment to find out if your heart is at risk- before it becomes urgent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.unlockhra.com\/v3\/05b6d6c3-ef47-493f-8c19-2861145908cd?utm_source=nhc&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=nhvi-dtc-hra-campaign\" class=\"btn btn-primary\" target=\"_blank\">Take the Quiz<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even patients with advanced heart failure are finding they can recover enough to return to living their lives with <a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/services-and-conditions\/heart-and-vascular-care\/treatments\/vad\/\">ventricular assist devices<\/a> that often make heart transplants unnecessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heart failure describes a heart muscle that isn\u2019t pumping as well as it should. A weakened heart can\u2019t supply enough oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body. The result can lead to <a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/services-and-conditions\/heart-and-vascular-care\/services\/heart-failure-stages\/\">stages of heart failure<\/a> that start with little or no symptoms and can progress to shortness of breath as you try to get more oxygen into your lungs. Everyday activities such as walking or climbing stairs can become very difficult. At its worst, heart failure leads to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6396060\/\">shortness of breath even while resting<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Family history, aging, unhealthy habits and conditions such as <a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/services-and-conditions\/endocrinology-diabetes\/services\/diabetes\/\">diabetes<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/news\/what-are-the-signs-of-high-blood-pressure\/\">high blood pressure<\/a> and obesity all can increase your risk for heart failure. <a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcareprovider.com\/news\/subclinical-hypertension-warrants-heightened-attention-in-black-patients-and-other-people-of-color\/\">African Americans are at greater risk<\/a> than those of other races and often experience heart failure at a younger age and are more likely to have more severe heart failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/services-and-conditions\/heart-and-vascular-care\/programs\/heart-failure\/treatment\/\">Heart failure treatment<\/a> begins with monitoring and addressing lifestyle habits. It will include medication to help your heart pump better and, if the condition worsens, ventricular assist devices and possibly heart transplant for the most severe cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full text-center float-md-end\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Seals-Heart-Lockup-Heart-Failure.png?wsr\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1166546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Seals-Heart-Lockup-Heart-Failure.png 500w, https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Seals-Heart-Lockup-Heart-Failure-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Seals-Heart-Lockup-Heart-Failure-150x60.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Same-day appointments are available for new patients at&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/location\/?q=Heart+Failure&amp;type=563\">locations<\/a>&nbsp;in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/location\/LOC0000192022\">downtown Louisville<\/a>&nbsp;and on the campuses of Norton&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/location\/LOC0000192020\">Audubon<\/a>&nbsp;Hospital and Norton&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/location\/LOC0000192021\">Brownsboro<\/a>&nbsp;Hospital.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Our compassionate and dedicated team includes specially trained heart failure cardiologists and advanced practice providers, a social worker, nurse navigators and dedicated pharmacist to help create a custom plan for care and make sure you and your family\u2019s questions are answered at every step.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When diagnosed promptly, more than 50% of patients with heart failure that wasn\u2019t caused by heart attacks or blockages are cured, compared with about 10% nationally.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Our program has advanced heart failure monitoring technology to detect signs of a weakening heart before you feel symptoms, with a goal of preventing hospital stays.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We are a DNV-accredited provider of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dnv.us\/supplychain\/healthcare\/vad.html\">ventricular assist devices<\/a>&nbsp;and are recognized as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/health.usnews.com\/best-hospitals\/area\/ky\/norton-hospital-6510488\/heart-failure\">High Performing in Heart Failure by U.S. News &amp; World Report<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Norton Heart &amp; Vascular Institute is proud to <strong>implant the Barostim device<\/strong> \u2014 an advanced, Food and Drug Administration-approved implantable therapy for patients with symptomatic heart failure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Our advanced care for severe heart failure includes&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/services-and-conditions\/heart-and-vascular-care\/programs\/heart-failure\/ventricular-assist-device-program\/\">ventricular assist device<\/a>&nbsp;implants, <a href=\"https:\/\/nortonhealthcare.com\/services-and-conditions\/heart-and-vascular-care\/programs\/heart-failure\/adult-ecmo\/\">extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)<\/a> support to give your heart a rest and time to heal, and access to heart transplants with ongoing aftercare.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ECMO programs at Norton Heart &amp; Vascular Institute and Norton Children\u2019s Heart Institute are each recognized by the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) as gold-level centers of excellence.
