Does Impaired Left Ventricular Relaxation Affect P Wave Dispersion in Patients with Hypertension?

P-wave dispersion and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in hypertension

P-wave Dispersion in Patients with Major Thalassemia

Abstract Background Prolonged P-wave duration and P-wave dispersion indicate interatrial conduction disturbance and early predict arrhythmia especially atrial fibrillation. Iron deposition in the atrial tissue might prolonged the atrial conduction time, and this study evaluated the P-wave prolongation and increased P-Wave dispersion in these patients. Materials and Methods Fifty patients w...

dose impaired relaxation of left ventricle affect early outcomes

although systolic dysfunction is revealed as a prognostic factor in cardiac surgery , the role of diastolic dysfunction as a predictive factor is less evaluated. in this retrospective study from 872 patients that underwent isolated coronary artery bypass graft(jan 2008-feb 2009),388 patients had normal left ventricular ejection fraction (>50%). these are divided in two groups, group 1: 361 pati...

Left ventricular concentric geometry is associated with impaired relaxation in hypertension: the HyperGEN study.

AIMS We tested the hypothesis that abnormal left ventricular (LV) relaxation is associated with concentric LV geometry. METHODS AND RESULTS Doppler LV filling properties were studied in 1384 hypertensive participants without cardiovascular disease, from the HyperGEN population (731 women, 784 obese, 236 diabetic) and compared in four LV geometry groups; normal, concentric remodelling (3.5%), ...
