To assess the prevalence, changes in and prognostic importance of B-lines, a pulmonary congestion measure, using a simplified lung ultrasound (LUS) method in acute heart failure (AHF). Pulmonary congestion is an important finding in AHF, however, traditional methods for its detection are insensitive. In a two-site, prospective, observational study 4-zone LUS was performed early during hospitalization for AHF (LUS1) and at discharge (LUS2). B-lines were quantified offline, blinded to clinical findings and outcomes by a core laboratory. Among 349 patients (median age 75, 59% men, mean EF 39%) the sum of B-lines in 4 zones ranged from 0 to 18 (LUS1). The risk of an adverse in-hospital event increased with rising B-line number on LUS1: odds ratio for each B-line tertile 1.82 (95% CI 1.14–2.88, P=0.011). B-line count decreased from a median of 6 (LUS1) to 4 (LUS2; P<0.001) over 6 days (median). In 132 patients with LUS2 images, the risk of HF hospitalization or all-cause death was greater in patients with a higher B-line number at discharge. This relationship was stronger closer to discharge: unadjusted HR 60 days: 3.30, 95% CI 1.52–7.17, P=0.002; 90 days: 2.94, 1.46–5.93, P=0.003; 180 days: 2.01, 1.11–3.64, P=0.021. The association between B-line number and short and long-term outcomes persisted after adjusting for important clinical variables, including NT-proBNP. Pulmonary congestion using a simplified 4-zone LUS method was common in AHF and improved with therapy. A higher B-line number at baseline and discharge identified patients at increased risk for adverse events.
