The Cardiac Insufficiency Bisoprolol Study II (CIBIS-II): a randomised trial
TL;DR: Beta-blocker therapy had benefits for survival in stable heart-failure patients and should not be extrapolated to patients with severe class IV symptoms and recent instability because safety and efficacy has not been established in these patients.
