Doppler echocardiography in advanced systolic heart failure: a reliable noninvasive alternative to Swan-Ganz catheter
Background: Although several studies have demonstrated a good correlation between Doppler echocardiographic and invasive measurements of single hemodynamic variables, the accuracy of echocardiography in providing a comprehensive assessment in individual patients has not been validated. To assess the accuracy and clinical applicability of Doppler echocardiography in determining the entire hemody...
متن کاملMeasurement of pulmonary arterial elastance in patients with systolic heart failure using Doppler echocardiography
OBJECTIVE A reliable and easy-to-perform method for measuring right ventricular (RV) afterload is desirable when scheduling patients with systolic heart failure to undergo heart transplantation. The present study aimed to investigate the accuracy of echocardiographically-derived pulmonary arterial elastance as a measurement of pulmonary vascular resistance by comparing it with invasive measures...
متن کاملHeart rate recovery and tissue Doppler echocardiography in heart failure.
BACKGROUND Previous research has demonstrated the prognostic value of echocardiography with tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in the heart failure (HF) population. Heart rate recovery (HRR) has also recently shown promise as a prognostic marker. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesize echocardiography with TDI and HRR will be significantly correlated and both will provide prognostic information. METHODS A tot...
متن کاملCongestive heart failure. Correlation between functional class and systolic and diastolic functions assessed by Doppler echocardiography.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of systolic or diastolic dysfunction, or both on congestive heart failure functional class. METHODS Thirty-six consecutive patients with a clinical diagnosis of congestive heart failure with sinus rhythm, who were seen between September and November of 1998 answered an adapted questionnaire about tolerance to physical activity for the determination of NYHA ...
متن کاملSelf-care behaviors in patients with systolic heart failure
Background and Purpose: To improve life quality, and lower mortality and rehospitalization for heart failure patients, awareness and adherence to self-care behaviors are essential. This study aims to determine the adherence level to self-care behaviors in the patients with systolic heart failure hospitalized in Alborz hospital in Karaj andShahriar hospital, and it was conducted in 2013. Methods...
