2013 ACCF/AHA Guideline/2009 ACC/AHA Focused Update and 2005 Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Heart Failure in the Adult (DO NOT EDIT) [1][2]

Initial and Serial Evaluation of the HF Patient (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Class I
"1. A thorough history and physical examination should be obtained/performed in patients presenting with HF to identify cardiac and noncardiac disorders or behaviors that might cause or accelerate the development or progression of HF. (Level of Evidence: C) "
"2. In patients with idiopathic DCM, a 3-generational family history should be obtained to aid in establishing the diagnosis of familial DCM. (Level of Evidence: C ) "
"3. Volume status and vital signs should be assessed at each patient encounter. This includes serial assessment of weight, as well as estimates of jugular venous pressure and the presence of peripheral edema or orthopnea.[3][4] (Level of Evidence: B ) "
"4. Initial laboratory evaluation of patients presenting with HF should include complete blood count, urinalysis, serum electrolytes (including calcium and magnesium), blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, glucose, fasting lipid profile, liver function tests, and thyroid-stimulating hormone. Serial monitoring, when indicated, should include serum electrolytes and renal function. A 12-lead ECG should be performed initially on all patients presenting with HF. (Level of Evidence: C) "
"5. In ambulatory patients with dyspnea, measurement of BNP or N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is useful to support clinical decision making regarding the diagnosis of HF, especially in the setting of clinical uncertainty.[5][6](Level of Evidence: A), Measurement of BNP or N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is useful for establishing prognosis or disease severity in chronic HF.[7][8][9] (Level of Evidence: A) "
"6. 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. (Level of Evidence: C) "
"7. Invasive hemodynamic monitoring with a pulmonary artery catheter should be performed to guide therapy in patients who have respiratory distress or clinical evidence of impaired perfusion in whom the adequacy or excess of intracardiac filling pressures cannot be determined from clinical assessment. (Level of Evidence: C) "
Class III (No Benefit)
"1. Routine repeat measurement of LV function assessment in the absence of clinical status change or treatment interventions should not be performed.[10][11](Level of Evidence: B) "
"2. Routine use of invasive hemodynamic monitoring is not recommended in normotensive patients with acute decompensated HF and congestion with symptomatic response to diuretics and vasodilators.[12](Level of Evidence: B) "
Class III (harm)
"1. Endomyocardial biopsy should not be performed in the routine evaluation of patients with HF. (Level of Evidence: C) "
Class IIa
"1. Validated multivariable risk scores can be useful to estimate subsequent risk of mortality in ambulatory or hospitalized patients with HF.[13][14] (Level of Evidence: B) "
"2. Screening for hemochromatosis or HIV is reasonable in selected patients who present with HF.[15](Level of Evidence: C) "
"3. Diagnostic tests for rheumatologic diseases, amyloidosis, or pheochromocytoma are reasonable inpatients presenting with HF in whom there is a clinical suspicion of these diseases.(Level of Evidence: C) "
"4. BNP or N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)-guided HF therapy can be useful to achieve optimal dosing of GDMT in select clinically euvolemic patients followed in a well-structured HF disease management program.[16][17](Level of Evidence: B) "
"5. Noninvasive imaging to detect myocardial ischemia and viability is reasonable in patients presenting with de novo HF who have known CAD and no angina unless the patient is not eligible for revascularization of any kind. Radionuclide ventriculography or magnetic resonance imaging can be useful to assess LVEF and volume when echocardiography is inadequate. (Level of Evidence: C) "
"6. Viability assessment is reasonable in select situations when planning revascularization in HF patients with CAD.[18][19](Level of Evidence: B) "
"7. Magnetic resonance imaging is reasonable when assessing myocardial infiltrative processes or scar burden.[20][21](Level of Evidence: ) "
"8. Invasive hemodynamic monitoring can be useful for carefully selected patients with acute HF who have persistent symptoms despite empiric adjustment of standard therapies and

a. whose fluid status, perfusion, or systemic or pulmonary vascular resistance is uncertain;

b. whose systolic pressure remains low, or is associated with symptoms, despite initial therapy;

c. whose renal function is worsening with therapy;

d. who require parenteral vasoactive agents; or

e. who may need consideration for MCS or transplantation.(Level of Evidence: C) "

"9. When ischemia may be contributing to HF, coronary arteriography is reasonable for patients eligible for revascularization.(Level of Evidence: C) "
"10. Endomyocardial biopsy can be useful in patients presenting with HF when a specific diagnosis is suspected that would influence therapy.(Level of Evidence: C) "
Class IIb
"1. The usefulness of serial measurement of BNP or N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) to reduce hospitalization or mortality in patients with HF is not well established.[16][17](Level of Evidence: B), Measurement of other clinically available tests such as biomarkers of myocardial injury or fibrosis may be considered for additive risk stratification in patients with chronic HF. [22][23](Level of Evidence: B)"
