Although the aforementioned triad is classical when diagnosing heart failure, we think it is problematic to rely only a physical examination for making a diagnosis.For example, although the presence of elevated jugular venous pressure is a very specific sign, it is one that is difficult to detect, with a low level of agreement among physicians when observing it in a specific patient.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010">2</a>In our opinion, it is very noteworthy that in this work also did not gather natriuretic peptide (BNP or NT-proBNP) values which, according to various scientific works, can be useful in patients with an intermediate probability of heart failure.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0015">3,4</a> In fact, the Spanish Society of Internal Medicine’s Heart Failure and Atrial Fibrillation Working Group includes the determination of NT-proBNP within its acute heart failure management protocol (version published in 2022).
