Summary
This study looks at whether a quick blood test (NT-proBNP) can help doctors find heart failure earlier in adults who take water pills (loop diuretics) but don't yet have a heart failure diagnosis. About 400 people from GP practices in Jersey will take part. Some GP practices will offer the blood test, while others will continue usual care. The goal is to see if the test leads to more heart failure diagnoses within a year and helps catch other heart problems sooner.
