“心脏衰竭”英文硬译是“心脏失败(heart failure)”,听起来很吓人,但其实并非说心脏“失败”了或者不工作了。只是说,它泵出的血液不够(The term "heart failure" can be frightening. It doesn't mean the heart has "failed" or stopped working. It means the heart doesn't pump as well as it should)。
跟高血压一样,心衰也是有指标的。例如可以测量*B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) blood test。50岁以下如果BNP高于450pg/ml,或者50以上高于900pg/ml,就可能是心衰( A level of more than 450 pg/mL for patients under age 50 or 900 pg/mL for patients 50 and older could mean you have heart failure)。
心衰有ABCD四个等级。
