Heart rate after cardiac transplantation.
Two patients who have undergone heart transplantation 7 and 15 months previously were studied to determine basal heart rate, the effects of exercise, and acute changes in venous return and blood pressure as well as of vagal stimulation. In one case the effects of body temperature, isoprenaline (isoproterenol), beta blockade, and atropinization on heart rate were studied. Mean resting heart rate...
متن کاملCardiac growth after pediatric heart transplantation.
BACKGROUND To assess whether normal cardiac growth occurs after heart transplantation in the pediatric age group, we performed a study of 13 infants and children who underwent orthotopic heart transplantation at Stanford. METHODS AND RESULTS The echocardiographic data from a population of 93 normal children were analyzed to determine estimates of the fifth, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 95th percenti...
متن کاملHeart failure CARDIAC TRANSPLANTATION
As a consequence of improved management in acute coronary syndromes and improved longevity of the population, the number of patients with heart failure is growing. The prevalence and incidence in industrialised countries are estimated to be around 1% and 0.15% of the population, respectively. Up to 10% of people with heart failure are at an advanced stage, amounting to 300 000 patients in the U...
متن کاملDiastolic function after cardiac and heart-lung transplantation.
The mechanical efficiency of left ventricular contraction and relaxation, the asynchrony of the onset of left ventricular relaxation, the time constant of left ventricular isovolumic pressure decay, and left ventricular chamber and myocardial stiffness were analysed in 32 patients after cardiac (24) and heart-lung transplantation (8). After cardiac transplantation left ventricular myocardial st...
متن کاملSympathetic reinnervation and heart rate variability after cardiac transplantation.
BACKGROUND Heart rate variability is thought to measure autonomic modulation, but the relation has never been demonstrated directly in humans. AIM To test the hypothesis that increased low frequency heart rate variability reflects sympathetic reinnervation after cardiac transplantation. PATIENTS 24 cardiac transplant recipients at the time of routine surveillance coronary angiography two or...
