Receiving rhythm management device therapy as recommended by the ACC/AHA or ESC Guidelines. Specifically: cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) should be implanted for at least 90 days prior to enrollment; an implanted cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) or a pacemaker should be implanted at least 30 days prior to enrollment. If subject is clinically contraindicated for these therapies this criterion may be waived.\n5. Have a minimum of one (1) prior hospital admission within the last 12-months for acute worsening of HF associated with signs/symptoms of congestion of at least one (1) calendar date change duration requiring treatment with an intravenous diuretic.

Alternatively, if patients have not had a HF hospitalization within the prior 12-months, they must have a corrected\\* elevated Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) level of at least 300pg/ml or an N-terminal pro-BNP (NT-proBNP) level of at least 1,500pg/ml, according to local measurement, within 30-days of the Baseline Visit. \\*Thresholds for NT-proBNP will be corrected for body mass index (BMI) using a 4% reduction per BMI unit over 20 kg/m2, If patient is on ARNI, NT-proBNP should be used exclusively.\n6.
