Treatment for congestive heart failure depends on the condition causing the heart to fail. Treatments can include heart transplant, valve replacement, bypass surgery, medications and lifestyle changes. Pacemakers, defibrillators and implanted "assist pumps" may also be utilized.

Supportive care for congestive heart failure includes treatment of edema and mitigation of sleep apnea, thyroid problems or anemia. Lifestyle changes are encouraged. Patients should stop smoking, avoid second-hand smoke, limit or eliminate caffeine and alcohol, achieve and maintain a healthy body weight, manage stress, and exercise as recommended by the attending physician.
