Heart Failure with Preserved Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND The prevalence and clinical outcomes of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction after acute myocardial infarction have not been well elucidated. OBJECTIVE To analyze the prevalence of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction in acute myocardial infarction and its association with mortality. METHODS Patients with acute myocardial infa...
متن کاملPredictors of increased left ventricular filling pressure in dialysis patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction.
AIM To study the left and right ventricular function and to assess the predictors of increased left ventricular (LV) filling pressure in dialysis patients with preserved LV ejection fraction. METHODS This study included 63 consecutive patients (age 57+/-14 years, 57% women) with end-stage renal failure. Echocardiography, including tissue Doppler measurements, was performed in all patients. Ba...
متن کاملLeft ventricular dyssynchrony in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction.
AIMS Mechanical dyssynchrony has been postulated to play a pathophysiologic role in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). METHODS AND RESULTS We quantified left ventricular (LV) systolic dyssynchrony in 130 HFpEF patients with NYHA class II-IV symptoms, ejection fraction (EF) ≥45%, and NT-proBNP levels >400 pg/mL enrolled in the PARAMOUNT trial, and compared them to 40 healt...
متن کاملEvaluation and management of patients with heart failure and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction.
A substantial number of patients with heart failure (HF) have preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), variably defined as an LVEF O40%, O45%, or O50%. When these patients have invasive or non-invasive evidence of abnormal diastolic function (either abnormal relaxation, filling or stiffness) they are said to have ‘‘diastolic HF’’. Although the term ‘‘HF with normal LVEF’’ is often u...
متن کاملChanges in Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction Predict Survival and Hospitalization in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction.
BACKGROUND Left ventricular remodeling, as commonly measured by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), is associated with clinical outcomes. Although change in LVEF over time should reflect response to therapy and clinical course, serial measurement of LVEF is inconsistently performed in observational settings, and the incremental prognostic value of change in LVEF has not been well charact...
