Abstract:Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome and pediatric heart failure (PHF) has a high mortality rate. Early diagnosis is crucial for treatment and management of PHF. In clinical practice, various tests and examinations play a key role in the diagnosis of PHF, including continuously updated biomarkers, echocardiography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. This article focuses on summarizing relevant research on biomarkers, examinations, combined testing, clinical models, and the grading and staging of PHF diagnosis, aiming to provide insights and directions for the diagnosis of PHF.
