The presence of residual subclinical sonographic pulmonary congestion at discharge predicts 6-month clinical outcomes across the whole spectrum of acute HF patients, independent of conventional biohumoral and echocardiographic parameters. Achieving effective pulmonary decongestion during hospitalization is associated with better outcomes.
