Acute heart failure (AHF) is a complex disorder involving different pathophysiological pathways. In recent years, there is an increased focus on biomarkers that help with diagnosis, risk stratification and disease monitoring of AHF. Finding a reliable set of biomarkers not only improves morbidity and mortality but it can also potentially reveal the new targets of therapy. In this paper, we have reviewed the biomarkers found useful for the diagnosis as well as for risk stratification and prognostication in patients with AHF. We have discussed the established biomarkers for AHF including cardiac troponins and natriuretic peptides and emerging biomarkers including adiponectin, mi-RNA, sST2, Gal-3, MR-proADM, OPG, CT-proAVP and H-FABP for the purposes of making diagnosis, their use as a guide of therapy or for determination of prognosis.
