Answer:

M.G. may not have been counselled properly on other non-pharmacological measures for the management of heart failure, exercise included.

Explanation: Non-pharmacological measures for the management of heart failure :

  • Compliance—give careful advice about disease, treatment, and self help strategies
  • Diet—ensure adequate general nutrition and, in obese patients, weight reduction
  • Salt—advise patients to avoid high salt content foods and not to add salt (particularly in severe cases of congestive heart failure)
  • Fluid—urge overloaded patients and those with severe congestive heart failure to restrict their fluid intake
  • Alcohol—advise moderate alcohol consumption (abstinence in alcohol related cardiomyopathy)  
  • Smoking—avoid smoking (adverse effects on coronary disease, adverse haemodynamic effects)  
  • Exercise—regular exercise should be encouraged
  • Vaccination—patients should consider influenza and pneumococcal vaccinations
