Comprehensive Diagnostic Work Up In Patients With Suspected Heart Failure And Preserved Ejection Fraction
Hellenic J Cardiol. 2023 Sep 22:S1109-9666(23)00184-7. doi: 10.1016/j.hjc.2023.09.013. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiagnosis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) can be challenging and it could require different tests, some of which are affected by limited availability. Nowadays, considering that new therapies are available for HFpEF and related conditions, a prompt and correct diagnosis is relevant. However, the diagnostic role of biomarker level, imaging tools, score-based algorithms, and invasive evaluation should be based on the strengths and weaknesses of each test. The aim of this review is to ...
