The presence of additional chronic conditions, more severe CHF, and comorbid illnesses predict higher acute symptom scores. The understanding of the temporal onset of acute symptoms can aid in education and awareness for patients at risk of hospital admission due to aggravated heart failure conditions...
Three months after oral amiodarone therapy was initiated for the treatment of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia detected by the CRT-D device, the patient's heart failure symptoms worsened and 12-lead electrocardiography showed newly emerged p-waves with atrioventricular (AV) dissociation.

However, the clinical profile of patients who develop heart failure (HF) or atrial fibrillation/flutter...
To account for potential misdiagnosis of heart failure symptoms as OAD exacerbations, another sensitivity analysis that excluded any exacerbation events when patients were diagnosed with heart failure at any time during follow-up was also conducted. Subgroup Analysis Subgroup analysis was performed to ...

The risk of HF as determined by the ID algorithm correlated with HF hospitalization and several HF signs and symptoms among patients in the Resynchronization-Defibrillation for Ambulatory Heart Failure Trial. This may present a useful adjunct to detect early signs of HF and adjust therapy to reduce...
