Can chronotropic incompetence predict life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias in patients with stable ischemic heart disease?
Background: Chronotropic incompetence has prognostic value of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in both patients with asymptomatic and symptomatic ischemic heart disease (IHD), regardless of traditional risk factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between chronotropic response during exercise test and the development of ventricular arrhythmias. Methods: 153 pati...
متن کاملCorrelation between low T3 syndrome and mortality rate in patients with systolic heart failure
Introduction: This study was performed to evaluate the prevalence of low T3 syndrome among patients with heart failure and to assess the correlation between decreased level of tri iodothyronin (T3) with mortality rate. Methods: In a prospective cross-sectional study, 91 patients with systolic heart failure were admitted to Mohammadi hospital in Bandar Abbas in 2008.Thyroid function test w...
متن کاملVentricular asynchrony predicts a better outcome in patients with chronic heart failure receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the clinical benefit of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) can be prospectively predicted by means of the baseline evaluation of left ventricular asynchrony. BACKGROUND The reverse remodeling associated with CRT is more evident in patients with severe heart failure (HF) and left bundle branch block (LBBB) who have left ventricular ...
متن کاملLeft ventricular markers of mortality and ventricular arrhythmias in heart failure patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy
AIMS Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces morbidity and mortality in heart failure. However, prediction of the outcome remains difficult. We aimed to investigate for echocardiographic predictors of ventricular arrhythmias and fatal outcome and to explore how myocardial function is changed by biventricular pacing in heart failure. METHODS AND RESULTS We prospectively included 170 he...
