Over the last decade, I am keenly interested in the progress, in the attention and care for heart failure patients in India. This process was accompanied by a great advancement in academic exchange and communication in and on heart failure. The process was lead by the Heart Failure Association of India in a most laudable way. As President of the Heart Failure Association of the ESC and later as its Past-President, I repeatedly had the chance to first-hand experience of their work at many conferences. Heart failure—particularly chronic heart failure—is a great place of progress of cardiovascular medicine in the same time span with new drugs and devices coming to the forefront of clinical medicine in reality. The book on heart failure we have now in our hands is attempting to give an executive summary of these developments by highlighting important papers and giving commentary that helps the reader for context. This format will aid the cardiologist of today, always keen to learn more, but also short on time. I wish the HFAI's new Year Book of Cardiology – 2019 Heart Failure all the success of the world. I am sure that the interested reader will get the knowledge needed to refine his/her care for the growing number of heart failure patients that need it.

It is extremely heartening to notice the remarkable progress, Indian Cardiology community has made in embracing the importance of the management of heart failure, during the last decade. This is reflected in the large number of meetings dedicated to heart failure, attendance at these meetings and the rapidity at which heart failure clinics are growing in the country. At the last meeting of the Heart Failure Association of India (HFAI), held in New Delhi in February 2019, the leadership of the HFAI decided that to further the interest of heart failure in the country, efforts be made to circulate to its members, in a digestible form, some of the most important recent publication on heart failure at regular intervals.
The publication of the first Year book of Heart Failure 2017 containing important publication in the field during the last year is a landmark achievement. Dr Chopra and all the other authors are to be congratulated for gathering so much information in one volume. The book has several chapters edited by some of India's leading and distinguished investigators and clinicians. They have done a remarkable job in collecting the most outstanding publications with the highest impact on a number of diverse topics including basic science research, heart failure registries, advances in management of treatment of chronic and acute decompensated heart failure. All readers, and particularly the busy clinician will find the format of providing the abstract of the publications followed by a brief commentary extremely helpful.
The book will be extremely useful to the cardiovascular specialist and internist caring for the growing number of these patients. It will be equally helpful to the scientists and the trainees. The readers will eagerly await the next year's Yearbook.

Heart failure has witnessed some remarkable new developments over the past few years. The literature is vast, and it becomes difficult to keep up with all that has been happening, be it basic research, diagnostics, available therapeutics or techniques under development. This small handbook by the Heart Failure Association of India is an attempt to give a snapshot of the most important developments in this field. The book is divided into 9 Sections, each containing a brief summary of the best articles in that field followed by comments from an expert. The period covered is from April’18 to March’19. I do hope you find it useful. Your comments and suggestions will be very welcome to make this yearly publication better in future.
I would like to sincerely thank all the contributors of this handbook for their diligence in finding the best articles and giving their valuable insights.
