Abstract
This chapter focuses on the impact of genetics and genomics on heart failure. Part one outlines how genetics provides insight to the underpinnings of heart failure. Part two highlights where genetics and genomics has impacted (or has the potential to impact) the management of patients with heart failure. Part two is divided into four main sections that include the impact of genetics and genomics on susceptibility, diagnosis, prognosis, and pharmacogenomics.
