چکیده
This Article contains errors in Table 3. In the " B-lines ≥ 15 " column, the Timing of B-line quantification values using univariable analysis for " Early during hospital stay " and " At discharge " are inverted. The correct Table 3 appears below.

Prognostic value of pulmonary congestion assessed by lung ultrasound imaging during heart failure hospitalisation: A two-centre cohort study
Pulmonary congestion assessed at discharge by lung ultrasonography predicts poor prognosis in heart failure (HF) patients. We investigated the association of B-lines with indices of hemodynamic congestion [BNP, E/e', pulmonary systolic arterial pressure (PAPs)] in HF patients, and their prognostic value overall and according to concomitant atrial fibrillation (AF), reduced (≤40%) ejection fract...
متن کاملPersistent pulmonary congestion before discharge predicts rehospitalization in heart failure: a lung ultrasound study
BACKGROUND B-lines evaluated by lung ultrasound (LUS) are the sonographic sign of pulmonary congestion, a major predictor of morbidity and mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Our aim was to assess the prognostic value of B-lines at discharge to predict rehospitalization at 6 months in patients with acute HF (AHF). METHODS A prospective cohort of 100 patients admitted to a Cardiolog...
متن کاملThe five-point Likert scale for dyspnea can properly assess the degree of pulmonary congestion and predict adverse events in heart failure outpatients
OBJECTIVES Proper assessment of dyspnea is important in patients with heart failure. Our aim was to evaluate the use of the 5-point Likert scale for dyspnea to assess the degree of pulmonary congestion and to determine the prognostic value of this scale for predicting adverse events in heart failure outpatients. METHODS We undertook a prospective study of outpatients with moderate to severe h...
متن کاملPulmonary congestion predicts cardiac events and mortality in ESRD.
Pulmonary congestion is highly prevalent and often asymptomatic among patients with ESRD treated with hemodialysis, but whether its presence predicts clinical outcomes is unknown. Here, we tested the prognostic value of extravascular lung water measured by a simple, well validated ultrasound B-lines score (BL-US) in a multicenter study that enrolled 392 hemodialysis patients. We detected modera...
متن کاملLung ultrasound: a new tool for the cardiologist
For many years the lung has been considered off-limits for ultrasound. However, it has been recently shown that lung ultrasound (LUS) may represent a useful tool for the evaluation of many pulmonary conditions in cardiovascular disease. The main application of LUS for the cardiologist is the assessment of B-lines. B-lines are reverberation artifacts, originating from water-thickened pulmonary i...
