HFA-PEFF score for HFpEF diagnosis in patients with AF
| Functional | Morphologic (AF) | Biomarker (AF) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Major (2 points) | Septal e’ < 7 cm/s | LAVI > 40 ml/m2 | BNP > 240 pg/ml |
| E/e’ ≥ 15 | |||
| PASP > 35 mmHg | |||
| Minor (1 point) | E/e’ ratio 9—14 | LAVI 34—40 ml/m2 | BNP 105–240 pg/ml |
| ≥ 5 points: High probability for HFpEF diagnosis | |||
