Angiotensin II receptor blocker add-on therapy for low cardiac output in decompensated heart failure

During heart failure (HF) decompensation, an intense activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system occurs; however, the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) cannot block it completely.
