LEFT VENTRICULAR DIASTOLIC ABNORMALITIES IN β-THALASSEMIA MAJOR WITH NORMAL SYSTOLIC FUNCTION

In order to identify left ventricular diastolic function in patients with betathalassemia major and normal systolic function by noninvasive M-mode and Doppler echocardiography, an analytic study was designed in a university hospital in Sari. We have studied 44 patients (23 men and 21 women), mean age 15.48±2.16 (range 12 to 20) and 43 age and sex matched control subjects. Peak flow velocit...

Association between serum ferritin level and diastolic cardiac function in patients with major β-thalassemia

Abstract Background Prevention of myocardial siderosis is a key step to reduce rate of mortality in thalassemic patients. Our objective was to study association between echocardiography parameters and serum ferritin level in patients with major thalassemia. Materials and Methods Sixty-six patients with major thalassemia were studied in Amir Kabir hospital, Arak, Iran. Serum ferritin levels ...

Right ventricular wall motion abnormalities n Thalassemia Major patients

Background Movement abnormalities in the left ventricle (LV) were shown to be not really frequent in thalassemia major (TM) patients but they were associated with age, myocardial iron overload, LV dilation and dysfunction, and myocardial fibrosis. No data are available about the prevalence and the correlates of right ventricular (RV) wall motion abnormalities. This study investigated the relati...
