"resolution of the acute heart failure situation" means that the symptoms of the condition will have been resolved or gone away. what would you expect to find when you assess the patient as opposed to when they had the symptoms of the acute heart failure?

Thanks for your help :)

so signs that heart failure is resolved would be signs such as

resting HR

systolic bp >80mmHg

net urine output above 1000ml and no new decrease in urine output

stable electrolyte pofile

no ischemic type chest pain

no new clinically significant arrhythmias

troponin T

room air SaO2 >90%

normal laboratory analysis, chest radiographs and ECG

Would there be any other signs?

Thanks
