Age ‐specific diastolic dysfunction improves prediction of symptomatic heart failure by Stage B heart failure

ConclusionsAge ‐specific ARIC DD criteria, but not ASE/EACVI DD criteria, predicted symptomatic HF, and addition of age‐specific ARIC DD criteria to ARIC SBHF criteria improved prediction of symptomatic HF in asymptomatic individuals with cardiovascular disease risk factors. Addition of LS to ASE/EACVI or ARIC SBHF criteria did not improve prediction of symptomatic HF.
