abstract="Ischemic heart disease, which is the most common cause of chronic heart failure, is responsible (according to World Health Organisation data for 2019) for the highest amount of deaths in Poland and in the world [1].  This review was created in accordance with the update of the ESC (European Society of Cardiology) guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of heart failure in 2021. The need to present this issue concisely, with attention to a comprehensive and long-term approach of care, was a cornerstone for this work. It focuses specifically on post-infarction heart failure, while most of the recommendations refer to heart failure in general, regardless of its cause.  Patients diagnosed with chronic post-infarction heart failure require a comprehensive and multidirectional approach of doctors, nurses, physiotherapists. It should include pharmacotherapy, non-pharmacological treatment, in selected cases - electrotherapy, heart transplantation and palliative treatment.",
