Heart failure (weakness of the heart muscle) affects over 100,000 people in the UK.
Tablet treatment increases life-span by > 3 times.
Beta blocker tablets are the most effective of all the tablet treatments for heart failure.
Some people are missing out on life-saving beta-blocker treatment because they think they had 'side effects'.
We have devised a method of understanding whether your symptoms were due to tablets or not.

We want you to be on the best treatment for your heart failure.
Now, we can find out whether or not what you felt previously was truly because of the tablets.
At Imperial we have proven world-class heart failure care and lead international research for this condition. We have devised a method to establish whether your symptoms whilst taking a beta-blocker were actually due to the tablet.
This is part of an important research study at Imperial College London with the British Heart Foundation.
We are offering this new service to all patients who felt unable to take beta-blocker tablets.
But, there are only 150 places for patients across the country to experience this new system
