can be due to a variety of medical conditions
Heart failure can be diagnosed by looking for certain biomarkers called Natriuretic
Peptides (NPs)
When NT-proBNP levels are elevated for asymptomatic patient with risk factors for

Underlying the development of cardiac dysfunction and further increased risk

• Mnemonic acronym FIND-HF will serves as a
reminder to consider heart failure inpatients with
high risks need to check for NT-ProBNP
