Scenario number | Clinical scenario | Class of recommendation (I, IIa, IIb, III) | Level of evidence (A,B,C) |
1 | New onset heart failure of less than 2 weeks duration associated with a normal size or dilated left ventricle and hemodynamic compromise | I | B |
2 | New onset heart failure of 2 weeks to 3 months duration associated with a dilated left ventricle, and new ventricular arrhythmias, second or third degree heart block, or failure to respond to usual care within 1 to 2 weeks | I | B |
3 | Heart failure of greater than 3 months duration associated with a dilated left ventricle and new ventricular arrhythmias, second or third degree heart block, or failure to respond to usual care within 1 to 2 weeks | IIa | C |
4 | Heart failure associated with a dilated cardiomyopathy of any duration associated with suspected allergic reaction and/or eosinophilia | IIa | C |
