Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to determine the utility of GRK2 to differentiate between normal patients and patient groups that differ by the presence/absence of HF symptoms, systolic or diastolic left ventricular dysfunction, and risk factors; and to evaluate if a new assay provides similar values as traditional methods for measuring GRK2 levels.

Eligibility Criteria
The study population subjects includes individuals in a range of age groups with a diagnosis of heart failure or at least one cardiovascular risk factor along with a subset of normal control subjects.
You may qualify if:
- Normal Controls: Individuals without HF, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, coronary artery disease or obesity;
- Group I: Symptomatic Subjects with Reduced LV Function, HF symptoms, EF ≤ 40%.
- Group II: Asymptomatic Patients with LV dysfunction, no HF symptoms (NYHA class I and ATS score 0 or 1, EF ≤ 40%.
- Group III: Symptomatic Subjects with Preserved LV Function, HF symptoms, EF ≥ 50%, and diastolic dysfunction.
- Group IV: Asymptomatic High Risk Subjects - Individuals with normal heart function, no HF symptoms (NYHA class I and ATS score 0 or 1), Preserved LV function (EF ≥ 50%), no diastolic dysfunction. Also possess one or more cardiovascular high risk factors: diagnosis of diabetes; hyperlipidemia; coronary artery disease; renal insufficiency; hypertension; age \>70 years
You may not qualify if:
- Pregnancy
- Not providing consent
- Inability to provide consent
- Participation in a clinical study involving an experimental therapy.
