Abstract
Purpose of review: The purpose of this review is to describe the evidence behind various blood and imaging-based biomarkers that can improve the identification of congestion when not clearly evident on routine examination.
Recent findings: The natriuretic peptides (NPs) BNP and NT-proBNP have been shown to closely correlate with intra-cardiac filling pressures, both at baseline and when trended following improvement in congestion. Additionally, NPs rise well before clinical congestion is apparent so can be used as a tool to help identify subclinical HF decompensation. Additional serum-based biomarkers including MR-proANP and CA-125 can be helpful in assisting with diagnostic certainty when BNP or NT-proBNP are in the "grey zone" or when factors are present which may confound NP levels. Additionally, the emerging use of ultrasound techniques may enhance our ability to fine-tune the assessment and treatment of congestion. Biomarkers, including the blood-based natriuretic peptides and markers on bedside point of care ultrasound, can be used as non-invasive indices of hemodynamic congestion. These biomarkers are particularly valuable to incorporate when the degree of a patient's congestion is not apparent on clinical exam, and they can provide important prognostic information and help guide clinical management.
期刊介绍：
This journal intends to provide clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts that review the most important, recently published clinical findings related to the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of heart failure. We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as investigative, pharmacologic, and nonpharmacologic therapies, pathophysiology, and prevention. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
