Stem Cell Therapy for Congestive Heart Failure

About Congestive Heart Failure Disease

Congestive Heart Failure Disease (CHF) is a heart problem causing failure to work and pump blood throughout the body. Different surgeries and medications can act as the treatment for the disorder, but stem cell therapy can be the best alternative treatment for the disease.


What is Congestive Heart Failure Disease?

Congestive Heart Failure is heart failure that occurs when the heart's pumping action doesn’t work anymore. When the failure happens, blood and fluids can build up in the lungs and lead to SOB (shortness of breath). 

A few heart conditions, such as high blood pressure and coronary artery disease (narrowing of arteries), can cause weakness of the heart and improper blood pumping.


What causes Congestive Heart Failure Disease?
The most common and frequent causes of congestive heart failure are:

  • Stiffness or improper filling of heart ventricles

  • High blood pressure – causes difficulty in the circulation of the blood

  • The faulty function of the heart valves – heart valve damage, heart infection, and coronary artery disease

  • Arrhythmias (the abnormal rhythm of the heart) 

  • Diabetes, HIV, and abnormalities of the thyroid function

  • Allergic reactions

  • Blood clotting

  • Severe infections and inflammations

  • Congenital heart defects and myocarditis

  • Heavy alcohol use and substance abuse

  • Viruses attack


What are the risk factors for Congestive Heart Failure Disease?

A combination of different risk factors can contribute to CHF as:

  • Coronary artery disease

  • Heart attacks

  • Heart valve diseases

  • Hypertension and high blood pressure

  • Irregularity in heartbeats

  • Diabetic medications as pioglitazone and rosiglitazone

  • Congenital heart diseases

  • Tobacco smoke, smoking, sleep apnea, viruses, obesity, and alcohol use

  • Blood cancer, nervous system diseases, urinary/lung conditions, infections, and inflammatory diseases

  • Heart valve disease and liver damage

  • Kidney failure and kidney damage

  • Irregular heartbeats and low levels of blood oxygen concentration


What are the Congestive Heart Failure Disease symptoms?

The most common signs and symptoms are:

  • Weakness and fatigue

  • SOB

  • Swelling of feet, ankles, and legs

  • Reduce exercise ability

  • Abdominal swelling

  • Lack of appetite and nausea

  • Irregularity in the heartbeat

  • A quick and intense weight gain

  • Chest pain

  • Decreased focus and alertness causing difficulty in concentration

  • Heart failure can either be acute (sudden start) or chronic (ongoing)


THE TREATMENT JOURNEY

How is Congestive Heart Failure Disease commonly treated?

The most frequently used medications for the treatment of CHF are:

  • Angiotensin II receptor blockers (candesartan, valsartan, and losartan)

  • Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors

  • Beta-blockers (bisoprolol, metoprolol, and carvedilol)

  • Diuretics

  • Aldosterone antagonists – eplerenone and spironolactone (Carospir, Aldactone)

  • Inotropes

  • Digoxin

  • isosorbide dinitrate and Hydralazine 

  • Vericiguat


What Is Stem Cell Therapy?
Stem Cells are the natural repair process of your body parts. SCs are present in our fat cells, bone marrow cells and in this case, we use Mesenchymal Stem Cells from donor cord blood. If you place the SCs over the area of damage, then these cells can lead to the activation of new and healthy cells. This healing process is what our body needs. Stem Cell Therapy helps boost body repair mechanisms and introduces the new Stem Cells.


How can Stem Cells Therapy treat Congestive Heart Failure?

Stem Cell Therapy and the use of Mesenchymal Stem Cells can help with the replacement of damaged tissues of the heart. Moreover, this treatment approach also helps with improved heart functioning. In addition, Mesenchymal Stem Cells have a beneficial and significant role in the stimulation of neovascularization and prevention of myocardial cell death.

How is the treatment at The Renue Medical Centre different?

The Stem Cell Therapy (SCT) at The Renue Medical Centre is a holistic approach to treating Congestive Heart Failure Disease. 

Your Renue Journey does not end after your last day of SCT. We follow up with you to assert your progress, since the treatment of Congestive Heart Failure Disease with Stem Cells consists of four phases:

  1. Pre-treatment: Clinical evaluation, lab test results, and other diagnostic procedures. You will take our Renue Epigenetic Test powered by TruDiagnostics that will assert your biological age and other important health markers. Your TruDiagnostics test is part of The Renue Difference. It provides your doctor with critical information about your health and your true age (biological vs chronological).

    After the epigenetic test and we have received all your medical records, your Patient Advisor will assist you in planning your travel to Puerto Vallarta.

  2. Treatment day: The treatment starts with taking a specific amount of blood through apheresis. After taking the Stem Cells, the rest of the blood is returned to the donor.

  3. 30, 60 & 90 days post-treatment follow-up: Congestive Heart Failure Disease symptoms clinical evaluation, flare-up frequency, and lab test results.

  4. Six months post-treatment: Congestive Heart Failure Disease symptoms clinical evaluation, flare-up frequency, lab test results, X-ray report, and review of the diagnostic criteria.

  • Mobilize the stem cells recently administered inside the body

  • Enhance the growth factors induced by the limbic cells 

  • Reduce the events of swelling, bad sleeping routine, and discomfort

  • Enhance the growth factors induced by the limbic cells


EXPECTED RESULTS 

SCT to live a better life: Benefits and outcomes

The effectiveness of Stem Cell Treatment can improve all your symptoms, causing a considerable impact on your quality of life and daily activities.

As part of The Renue Difference, you will receive three Hyperbaric Chamber sessions that greatly improve SCT efficacy and stimulate the body cells to combat Congestive Heart Failure Disease. These sessions comprise three days: One day before treatment, after treatment, and on the day of treatment.

According to results, clinical outcomes, and pre-and post-treatment observations, SCT has been shown to help

  • Reduce Congestive Heart Failure Disease progression

  • Speed up tissue repair

  • Regrow and repair tissues after six months

After the SCT procedure, an MRI test depicts the further need for the treatment at a specific body site.

Talk to our Patient Advisor to learn more about SCT at The Renue Medical Centre.


Expected results and prognosis:

Improved life quality

  • Normal heart pumping and functions

  • Improved heart endurance and strength

  • More independence 


FREQUENT QUESTIONS

What are the risk factors for Congestive Heart Failure Disease?

The most frequent or common risk factors of SCT can be:

  • Bleeding from the site of injection

  • Fever

  • Painful injection area /site

  • Lethargy and fatigue
