HF = heart failure.
Category of heart failure Abbreviation Left ventricular ejection fraction, % Additional criteria to meet diagnosis Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction HFrEF <40 Not required Heart failure with mid-range ejection fraction HFmrEF 40–49 Elevated levels of natriuretic peptides and either relevant structural heart disease or diastolic dysfunction Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction HFpEF ≥50 Elevated levels of natriuretic peptides and either relevant structural heart disease or diastolic dysfunction NYHA Class Definition I No limitations of physical activity. Ordinary physical activity does not cause undue fatigue, palpitation, or dyspnoea II Slight limitation of physical activity. Patients are comfortable at rest. Ordinary physical activity results in fatigue, palpitation, breathlessness, or angina pectoris III Marked limitation of physical activity. Although patients are comfortable at rest, less than ordinary activity will lead to symptoms IV Inability to carry out any physical activity without discomfort. Symptoms of congestive cardiac failure are present even at rest. Increased discomfort with any physical activity
