Acute Effects of Continuous Positive Air way Pressure on Pulse Pressure in Chronic Heart Failure
BACKGROUND Patients with heart failure (HF) have left ventricular dysfunction and reduced mean arterial pressure (MAP). Increased adrenergic drive causes vasoconstriction and vessel resistance maintaining MAP, while increasing peripheral vascular resistance and conduit vessel stiffness. Increased pulse pressure (PP) reflects a complex interaction of the heart with the arterial and venous system...
متن کاملAcute Effects of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Pulse Pressure in CHF
Today’s reality on non-invasive ventilation (NIV) use has nothing but four key A level indications supported by evidence-based medicine. These, which would be chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation, cardiogenic pulmonary edema, pulmonary infiltrates in immunocompromised patients, and the weaning of already extubated COPD patients, are the so called “the fabulous four”1. But i...
متن کاملAcute effects of continuous positive airway pressure on cardiac sympathetic tone in congestive heart failure.
BACKGROUND Depressed ventricular performance and neurohormonal activation are key pathophysiological features of congestive heart failure (CHF). Although angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and beta-adrenoceptor blockers exert beneficial effects in CHF, mortality remains unacceptably high, and the development of further therapeutic approaches is warranted. Recent data suggest that continuo...
متن کاملEffects of the continuous positive airway pressure on the airways of patients with chronic heart failure.
BACKGROUND Heart failure can present with asymptomatic dysfunction at decompensation, with limitations and decrease in the productive capacity. The Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is a non-pharmacological means to decrease afterload. OBJECTIVE To analyze the effects of CPAP (10 cmH2O), for 30 days in patients with chronic heart failure. METHODS We assessed 10 patients with heart ...
متن کاملContinuous positive airway pressure in patients with heart failure.
Adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) has been attracting attention as a novel respiratory support therapy for heart failure (HF). However, the acute hemodynamic effects have not been compared between ASV and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in HF patients.We studied 12 consecutive patients with stable chronic HF. Hemodynamic measurement was performed by right heart catheterization before ...
