Patients with suspected or new-onset [[HF]], or those presenting with acute decompensated [[HF]], should undergo a chest x-ray to assess heart size and pulmonary congestion and to detect alternative cardiac, pulmonary, and other diseases that may cause or contribute to the patient’s symptoms. A 2-dimensional echocardiogram with Doppler should be performed during initial evaluation of patients presenting with [[HF]] to assess ventricular function, size, wall thickness, wall motion, and valve function. Repeat measurement of [[EF]] and measurement of the severity of structural remodeling are useful to provide information in patients with HF who have had a significant change in clinical status; who have experienced or recovered from a clinical event; or who have received treatment, including GDMT, that might have had a significant effect on cardiac function; or who may be candidates for device therapy.''
