Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy; Pathophysiology and clinical approach
Cardiac dysfunction is considerably discovered in patients with liver cirrhosis. Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy (CCM) has newly been assigned to as an entity separate of the cirrhosis etiology. Increased cardiac output due to hyperdynamic circulation, left ventricular dysfunction (systolic and diastolic) and certain electro-physiological abnormal findings are pathophysiological features of the diseas...
متن کاملThe heart: pathophysiology and clinical implications of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy.
Cirrhosis is associated with hyperdynamic circulation, which consists of peripheral vasodilatation and increased cardiac output. Peripheral vasodilatation is central to hyperdynamic circulation and portal hypertension in cirrhosis. However, those mechanisms underlying hyperdynamic circulation remain elusive, and are not fully understood. Most of the earlier research and attention have been focu...
متن کاملCirrhotic cardiomyopathy.
Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy is a clinical syndrome in patients with liver cirrhosis characterized by an abnormal and blunted response to physiologic, pathologic, or pharmacologic stress but normal to increased cardiac output and contractility at rest. As many as 50% of cirrhotic patients undergoing liver transplantation show signs of cardiac dysfunction, and 7% to 21% of deaths after orthotopic li...
متن کاملCirrhotic cardiomyopathy
Cardiomyopathy is a chronic disease of the myocardium characterized by an abnormal dilatation and thinning of the left ventricular (LV), associated with the contractile dysfunction of the muscle and loss of pump capacity, resulting in the occurrence of arrhythmias and myocardial infarction. It has many causes and can occur in the liver pathology inclusively.
