[Predictors of improved left ventricular systolic function after surgical revascularization in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Although it is known that the presence of myocardial viability predicts an increase in ejection fraction after revascularization in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy, little is known about other predictive factors. The aim of this study was to identify variables that can predict an increase in ejection fraction after coronary revascularization surgery in patients...

15 صفحه اولFailure to improve left ventricular function after coronary revascularization for ischemic cardiomyopathy is not associated with worse outcome.
Background-Preoperative identification of viable myocardium in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy is considered important because CABG can result in recovery of left ventricular (LV) function. However, the hypothesis that lack of improvement of LV function after CABG is associated with poorer patient outcome is untested. Methods and Results-Outcome was compared in patients with ischemic LV d...
متن کاملEffect of revascularizing viable myocardium on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy.
AIMS In patients with ischaemic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and viable myocardium, revascularization improves systolic function. Diastolic dysfunction is also present in such patients; however, whether revascularization improves diastolic function also is largely unknown. METHODS Twenty-six patients with chronic ischaemic cardiomyopathy [ejection fraction (EF) 32 +/- 6%, wall motion sco...
