Chronic Canine Mitral Regurgitation
The mechanism by which ft blockade improves left ventricular dysfunction in various cardiomyopathies has been ascribed to improved contractile function of the myocardium or to improved ,8-adrenergic responsiveness. In this study we tested two hypotheses: (a) that chronic 13 blockade would improve the left ventricular dysfunction which develops in mitral regurgitation, and (b) that an important ...
متن کاملChronic mitral regurgitation and aortic regurgitation: have indications for surgery changed?
The timing of surgery in patients with mitral regurgitation (MR) and aortic regurgitation (AR) continues to elicit uncertainty and considerable controversy. Some patients will incur myocardial structural changes, pulmonary hypertension, or arrhythmias before they manifest symptoms, with the risk that these adverse endpoints will not be reversible after valve repair or replacement. Imaging to as...
متن کاملContemporary approach to aortic and mitral regurgitation.
Hemodynamically severe aortic regurgitation (AR) and mitral regurgitation (MR) are among the most predictable causes of heart failure (HF) and sudden death (SD). During the past 4 decades, surgery has become the primary intervention for patients with these diseases. However, timing of operation is a “moving target”: surgical techniques have improved dramatically; noninvasive methods have develo...

متن کاملPatients with Chronic Aortic Regurgitation
Nitroprusside was used to reduce afterload in 13 patients with isolated, severe aortic regurgitation. The drug significantly lowered mean aortic pressure, pulse pressure, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and left ventricular volume. Total ventricular, or angiographic, cardiac index was generally unaffected, but forward cardiac index was improved significantly in 8 of 13 patients. Augment...
