Cardiovascular Disease: Heart Failure and Nonischemic Cardiomyopathies

Overview of Medical Evaluation

CVD represents several distinct medical conditions. Therefore, the evaluative criteria will be discussed in individual sections devoted to these conditions. The treating physician (preferably a cardiologist) must provide the police physician with two documents:

• a written statement regarding whether the LEO meets the relevant criteria in other sections regarding heart failure: and 
• relevant medical records.
