Congestive Cardiac Failure
The expanding role of intravenous nitroglycerin (GTN) in the management of critically ill hospitalized patients demands a clear knowledge of its pharmacodynamics and kinetics in both normal and diseased states. Accordingly, we studied 16 patients with congestive cardiac failure to establish the relationship between blood levels of GTN and its physiologic effects during and after an i.v. infusio...
متن کاملFolic acid malabsorption in cardiac failure.
The association of malnutrition with chronic cardiac failure has been recognized for many years, and the occurrence of intestinal malabsorption was first recorded in 1938 when Bologna and Costadoni measured, by fat balance, the degree of steatorrhoea in 20 patients with congestive cardiac failure. Malabsorption of neutral fat has been repeatedly observed (Langen, 1953; Hakkila, Makela, and Halo...
متن کاملFat malabsorption in elderly patients with cardiac cachexia.
Malnutrition resulting from chronic congestive heart failure (cardiac cachexia, CC) is not uncommon and contributes to mortality and morbidity especially of elderly people. The aetiology of cardiac cachexia is probably multifactorial. We have assessed whether malabsorption of fat is associated with CC and if so whether it is due to small-bowel bacterial overgrowth. Three groups of subjects were...
متن کاملCardiac CT Angiography in Congestive Heart Failure.
Cardiac CT angiography has become an important tool for the diagnosis and treatment of congestive heart failure. Differentiation of ischemic from nonischemic cardiomyopathy; evaluation of myocardial perfusion; characterization of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, left ventricular noncompaction, and arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia; and delineation of congenital heart defects and valvular a...
