Abstract
The nurse-directed titration succeeded in introducing more patients on β-blockers than on ACE-inhibitors. Mortality was reduced during the study period, associated with more use of documented therapy, β-blockers in particular. These findings suggest that the observed signs of improvement in CHF prognosis are likely caused by more efficient medical treatment.
