The paradigms of congestive heart failure treatment has shifted from pharmacological manipulation of hemodynamics to a strategy for protecting the heart from biological harm . This reparable strategy is based on such concepts that the failing myocyte accompanied with intrinsic defects in structure and function could be improved biologically . Under the circumstances , the TCM practitioners should review and reconsider the past research work they had done, duly renovate their notions and abandon the outmoded theories . No longer should the TCM therpy of congestive heart failure be viewed in terms of symptom improvements in the short run . Instead , the aim should be to suppress the hyperactive neurohormonal system and prevent myocardial remodelling as they bring up a great benefit towards decreasing the rate of death and hospital admission .
