Overview

Clinical assessment of a patient based on a thorough history taking and physical examination is still the cornerstone in diagnosing heart failure. Based on the gathered data, patients can be assessed if he has an underlying heart condition which necessitates a disease-specific therapy such as amyloid heart disease, a cardiomyopathy, or a developing decompensated heart failure. It is important to investigate for presence of heart congestion so as to treat it the at the earliest stage to avoid deterioration in the quality of life and prognosis.

Criteria for definition of advanced heart failure

1. Severe and persistent symptoms of heart failure NYHA class III-IV
2. Severe cardiac dysfunction is defined by at least one of the following:

3. Episodes of pulmonary or systemic congestion requiring high-dose i.v. diuretics (or diuretic combinations) or episodes of low output requiring inotropes or vasoactive drugs or malignant arrhythmias causing >1 unplanned visit or hospitalization in the last 12 months
4. Severe impairment of exercise capacity with inability to exercise or low 6MWT distance (<300 m) or pVO2 <12 mL/kg/min or <50% predicted value, estimated to be of cardiac origin[1]

Clinical Assessment

Framingham Criteria

Major Criteria

Minor Criteria

Boston Criteria of Congestive Heart Failure

Category I: History

Category II: Physical Examination

Category III: Chest Radiography

No more than 4 points are allowed from each of three categories; hence the composite score (the sum of the subtotal from each category) has a possible maximum of 12 points.

The diagnosis of heart failure is classified as "definite" at a score of 8 to 12 points, "possible" at a score of 5 to 7 points, and "unlikely" at a score of 4 points or less.

2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [2]

Initial and Serial Evaluation 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [2]

Clinical Assessment: History and Physical Examination 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [2]

Class I
"1. In patients with HF, vital signs and evidence of clinical congestion should be assessed at each encounter to guide overall management, including adjustment of diuretics and other medications.[3][4][5][6][7][8] (Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"2. In patients with symptomatic HF, clinical factors indicating the presence of advanced HF should be sought via the history and physical examination. [9][10][11][12][13][14] (Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"3. In patients with cardiomyopathy, a 3-generation family history should be obtained or updated when assessing the cause of the cardiomyopathy to identify possible inherited disease. [15][16] (Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"4. In patients presenting with HF, a thorough history and physical examination should direct diagnostic strategies to uncover specific causes that may warrant disease-specific management. [17][18] (Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"4. In patients presenting with HF, a thorough history and physical examination should be obtained and performed to identify cardiac and noncardiac disorders, lifestyle and behavioral factors, and social determinants of health that might cause or accelerate the development or progression of HF. ([[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: C-EO]) "

Initial Laboratory and Electrocardiographic Testing 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [2]

Class I
"1. For patients presenting with HF, the specific cause of HF should be explored using additional laboratory testing for appropriate management. [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] (Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"2. For patients who are diagnosed with HF, laboratory evaluation should include complete blood count, urinalysis, serum electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, glucose, lipid profile, liver function tests, iron studies, and thyroid-stimulating hormone to optimize management. (Level of Evidence: C-EO) "
"3. For all patients presenting with HF, a 12-lead ECG should be performed at the initial ecounter to optimize management. (Level of Evidence: C-EO) "

Use of Biomarkers for Prevention, Initial Diagnosis, and Risk Stratification (DO NOT EDIT) [2]

Class I
"1. In patients presenting with dyspnea, measurement of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal prohormone of B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is useful to support a diagnosis or exclusion of HF. [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38] (Level of Evidence: A) "
"2.In patients with chronic HF, measurements of BNP or NT-proBNP levels are recommended for risk stratification. [37][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55] (Level of Evidence: A) "
"3. In patients hospitalized for HF, measurement of BNP or NT-proBNP levels at admission is recommended to establish prognosis. [37][39][40][41][42][43][44][45] (Level of Evidence: A) "
Class IIa
"4. In patients at risk of developing HF, BNP or NT-proBNP-based screening followed by team-based care, including a cardiovascular specialist, can be useful to prevent the development of LV dysfunction or new-onset HF. [56][57] (Level of Evidence: B-R) "
"5.In patients hospitalized for HF, a predischarge BNP or NT-proBNP level can be useful to inform the trajectory of the patient and establish a postdischarge prognosis. [40][43][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55] (Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
