Study objectives: The diagnosis of congestive heart failure (CHF) is difficult because physical examination and chest radiograph findings are not reliably identified. We describe the frequency of specific physical examination findings and chest radiograph evidence of CHF in an emergency department (ED) ...
Chest and cardiovascular examination : Crackles or rales on lung examination Jugular venous distention Displaced apical beat S3 heart sound (low-pitched sound in early diastole )Other physical findings: Hepatosplenomegaly (which can cause tenderness) Hepatojugular reflux (↑ jugular venous pressure ...
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists in heart failure: an individual patient level meta-analysis 2024, The Lancet Citation Excerpt : In a subgroup analysis, the benefit of finerenone was consistent regardless of background SGLT2 inhibitor use8 and this is consistent with similar findings in trials ...

Heart failure (HF) is a major cardiovascular disease worldwide, and the early detection and diagnosis remain challenges. Recently, heart rhythm complexity analysis, derived from non-linear heart rate variability (HRV) analysis, has been proposed as a non
To diagnose heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), the following three criteria have to be fulfilled [1–8]:...

The study findings suggested that patients with HF could be given the choice between BA or MEDS to ameliorate depression. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03688100.Introduction Heart failure (HF) affects more than 6 million adults in the US and more than 64 million adults world...
Physical Examination Findings The clinical manifestations of CHF as seen on thephysical examinationare essential in making the diagnosis. Vital sign abnormalities are commonly present and may include hypotension,tachycardia,hypoxia, andtachypnea.6Hypotension typically results from poorcardiac contractilityand ma...
Echo = echocardiography; HFrEF = heart failure with reduced ejection fraction; LVEDD = left ventricular end diastolic dimension; MRI = magnetic resonance imaging. Clinical examination, symptomatology, and electrocardiogram Jugular venous distension and signs of volume overload are particularly concerning in...
