Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to the field of laboratory diagnostics. Specifically, methods are disclosed for determining a patient's risk of suffering from heart failure (HF) based on the detection of NT-proBNP, troponin T, and/or a natriuretic peptide. Also disclosed are methods for improving both the accuracy and speed of HF risk models by incorporating biomarker data from patient samples.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for diagnosing heart failure risk in a subject, comprising:\n a. obtaining the subject's simplified model factors; b. obtaining the amount of Troponin T (TnT) and NT-pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in a biological sample obtained from the subject; c. obtaining a simplified model score based on the amount of TnT and NT-proBNP in the biological sample obtained from the subject and the subject's simplified model factors; d. obtaining the alignment value of the simplified model score compared to a clinical model score; and e. providing a diagnosis of heart failure risk if the alignment value exceeds a threshold.
