Killip Classification for Heart Failure

Classifies severity of heart failure and cardiogenic shock in the setting of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) based on physical examination findings. Predicts in-hospital mortality.

Parameters

Select Killip Classany

Class I — No Heart FailureNo signs or symptoms of heart failure. No rales, no S3 gallop.Class II — Mild to Moderate Heart FailureBibasilar rales (covering < 50% of lung fields), S3 gallop, or elevated jugular venous pressure.Class III — Severe Heart Failure / Pulmonary EdemaRales audible over more than 50% of lung fields (pulmonary edema). Orthopnea, severe dyspnea.Class IV — Cardiogenic ShockSBP < 90 mmHg due to LV failure, with signs of peripheral hypoperfusion: oliguria, cyanosis, diaphoresis, altered mental status.
