Early pulmonary congestion detection and surveillance in acute heart failure patients can prevent decompensation, minimize hospitalizations, and improve prognosis. In India, the warm and wet types of HF are still the most common types and residual congestion at discharge is still a significant concern. Thus, there is an urgent need for a reliable and sensitive means of identifying residual and subclinical congestion. Two such monitoring systems are available and approved by US FDA. These include CardioMEMS HF System (Abbott, Sylmar, California) and ReDS System (Sensible Medical Innovations, Ltd., Nanya, Israel). CardioMEMS is a wireless pressure-sensitive implantable device, while ReDS is a wearable noninvasive device for measurement of the lung fluid and hence direct detection of PC. This review discusses the role of noninvasive assessment in PC monitoring in patients with heart failure and its implications from an Indian perspective.

Background: Heart failure (HF) significantly impacts healthcare systems due to high rates of hospital bed utilization and readmission rates. Chronic HF often leads to frequent hospitalizations due to recurrent exacerbations and a decline in patient health status. Intravenous (IV) diuretic administration is essential for treating worsening HF.

Background: Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) is common in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, and it is associated with poor prognosis. However, no biomarker reflecting RVD is available for routine clinical use.

Methods: Proteomic analysis of myocardium from the left ventricle and right ventricle (RV) of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction with (n=10) and without RVD (n=10) who underwent heart transplantation was performed.
