Overview
Physical examination is of utmost importance in the suspicion, diagnosis, and follow-up of heart failure. The focus should be targeted mainly on the evaluation of the fluid status, blood pressure, and weight changes.
Physical Examination
General
- The patient's weight should be recorded to ascertain how far they are from their "dry" weight.
- Tachycardia
- Tachypnea (an increased rate of breathing) and an increased work of breathing.
- Narrow pulse pressure (systolic blood pressure minus diastolic blood pressure is < 25 mm Hg).
Appearance
Skin
- The skin is cool and clammy consistent with hypoperfusion or cardiogenic shock.
- Cyanosis is observed if severe hypoxemia is present.
- Anasarca
Neck
- Jugular vein distention
- Central venous pressure > 16 cm H2O
Lungs
- Pleural effusion with dullness to percussion at the bases.
- Rales
Abdomen
Heart
- Third heart sound (S3) and a gallop rhythm.
- A displaced point of maximum impulse (PMI) consistent with an enlarged left ventricle.
- If the right ventricular pressure is increased, a parasternal heave may be present, signifying the compensatory increase in contraction strength.
- A functional holosystolic murmur of mitral regurgitation may be heard if the heart dilates excessively.
- Underlying valvular heart disease causes of congestive heart failure such as aortic stenosis.
aortic regurgitation and mitral regurgitation may be auscultated.
Extremities
Neurologic
Signs that represent left-sided heart failure include cool clammy skin, cyanosis, rales, a gallop rhythm, and a laterally displaced PMI. Signs that represent right sided heart failure include an elevated JVP, pedal edema, ascites, hepatomegaly, a parasternal heave and hepatojugular reflux. Common signs of both left and right sided heart failure are present.
2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
Clinical Assessment: History and Physical Examination (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
| 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.[2][3][4][5][6][7] (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. [8][9][10][11][12][13] (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. [14][15] (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. [16][17] (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]) " |
Serial Clinical Assessment of Patients Presenting With Heart Failure (DO NOT EDIT)[18][19]
| Class I |
| "1. Assessment should be made at each visit of the ability of a patient with heart failure to perform routine and desired activities of daily living. (Level of Evidence: C) " |
| "2. Assessment should be made at each visit of the volume status and weight of a patient with heart failure. (Level of Evidence: C) " |
