Diagnostic flowcharts for diastolic heart failure

This editorial discusses the complexities and terminology surrounding the diagnosis of diastolic heart failure, specifically commenting on a consensus statement proposing the term HFNEF.

Limitations

  • Excluding certain data from the diagnostic flowcharts might reduce sensitivity and/or specificity.

Cite This Study

Liv Hatle (2007) conducted an editorial in Diastolic heart failure. Diagnostic flowcharts for diastolic heart failure was evaluated. The consensus statement provides useful flowcharts for diagnosing diastolic heart failure, though the chosen cut-offs and exclusion of certain data may impact diagnostic sensitivity and specificity.
