title: [An improved classification of chronic heart failure].
abstract: A clinicofunctional classification is proposed of chronic cardiac insufficiency (ChCI), based on the modified classification by Strazhesko-Vasilenko on the syndrome type and New York Association of Cardiologists. Each of the clinically important functional classes is subdivided into subclasses. Clinically manifest ChCI is subdivided into reversible, partly reversible and irreversible subclasses.
