2. New York Heart Association Functional Classification

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Heart_Association...

   The New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Classification provides a simple way of classifying the extent of heart failure.It places patients in one of four categories based on how much they are limited during physical activity; the limitations/symptoms are in regard to normal breathing and varying degrees in shortness of breath and/or angina.

3. Ejection fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ejection_fraction

   Modalities applied to measurement of ejection fraction is an emerging field of medical mathematics and subsequent computational applications. The first common measurement method is echocardiography, [7] [8] although cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), [8] [9] cardiac computed tomography, [8] [9] ventriculography and nuclear medicine (gated SPECT and radionuclide angiography) [8] [10 ...

4. SAMe-TT2R2 score - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAMe-TT2R2_score

   This score reflects the need to offer an improved patient care pathway when using oral anticoagulants. While NOACs avoid the need for drug monitoring (e.g. INR monitoring), they have an unstable bioavailability and are not indicated for patients with chronic kidney failure [7] or in patients with valvular replacement surgery. [8]

5. CHA2DS2–VASc score - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHA2DS2–VASc_score

   To complement the CHADS 2 score, by the inclusion of additional 'stroke risk modifier' risk factors, the CHA 2 DS 2-VASc-score has been proposed. [8]In clinical use, the CHADS 2 score has been superseded by the CHA 2 DS 2-VASc score, which gives a better stratification of low-risk patients.

6. Framingham Risk Score - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framingham_Risk_Score

   The Framingham Risk Score was first developed based on data obtained from the Framingham Heart Study, to estimate the 10-year risk of developing coronary heart disease. [1] In order to assess the 10-year cardiovascular disease risk, cerebrovascular events , peripheral artery disease and heart failure were subsequently added as disease outcomes ...

7. Heart failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_failure

   N-terminal pro-BNP (NT-proBNP) is the favored biomarker for the diagnosis of heart failure, according to guidelines published 2018 by NICE in the UK. [3] Brain natriuretic peptide 32 (BNP) is another biomarker commonly tested for heart failure. [74] [6] [75] An elevated NT-proBNP or BNP is a specific test indicative of heart failure ...
