Abstract:	Heart failure (HF) treatment is generally planned and conducted by clinical judgment. Voltages of the ECG QRS complexes in patients with established HF increases by clinical improvement and decreases by clinical worsening probably due to pronounced or resolved interstitial edema status. The aim of the present study was to evaluate QRS voltage changes with HF treatment and to determine the clinical value of QRS amplitude changes in predicting the clinical improvement.
