The etiology of acute heart failure can vary significantlly
• Primary dilated cardiomyopathy
• Acute coronary syndrom
• Arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus
• Toxic cardiomyopathy (cocaine, alchohol)
Clinical and pathophysiological classification of acute heart failure
More than 90% of patients hospitalized with heart failure have congestion (wet) and show elevated PCWP1,2

Pulmonary oedema (16% vs 37%) and cardiogenic shock (4% vs 12%) are significantly different between the two studies.
