Abstract

Heart failure (HF) is a major health problem causing frequent hospital admissions and reduced quality of life. Cognitive impairment (CI) is a common finding in patients with HF that leads to higher mortality and less successful treatment. Evidences suggest that cognitive impairment can be diagnosed by common carotid flow velocity. As mild CI is not clinically measurable in most cases we can use ultrasound to develop a relevant screening model for cognitive dysfunction in HF.
