JEREZ CASTRO, Ana M.. Biomarkers in heart failure. CorSalud [online]. 2019, vol.11, n.4, pp. 317-325. Epub 01-Dez-2019. ISSN 2078-7170.
Heart failure is an increasingly prevalent disease, which requires additional blood tests that not only confirm what is clinically presumed, but also be useful in the prognostic evaluation of those who suffer from it. In this context, biomarkers with practical utility appeared in the heart failure guidelines, at the beginning of the year 2000. With diagnostic, prognostic and evolutionary indications in each clinical stage of this disease, both in acute and chronic stages, its use draws guidelines and strategies in the adequate treatment of these patients. In this review article, a brief approach to the subject is made.
