CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE IN CHILDREN: A SURVEY OF 114 PATIENTS
During a period of four years between June, IS, 1988 to June, IS, 1992 one hundred and fourteen patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) were admitted to the pediatric department of Taleghani General Hospital. During the above period, 192 patients with heart disease were hospitalized at this department and CHF was the cause of admission in 59.4% of them. Congenital heart disease (CHO) w...
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...
متن کاملPrecipitating factors of congestive heart failure in admitted patients of Fatemieh Hospital in Semnan, Iran
Introduction: Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is a pathophysiologic state in which an abnormality of cardiac function is responsible for the failure of the heart to pump blood at a commensurate rate with the requirements of the metabolizing tissues and/or allows it to do so only from an abnormally elevated diastolic volume. In this study, the prevalence of precipitating factors of CHF in Semna...
متن کاملCardiac resynchronization therapy for congestive heart failure.
Cardiac resynchronization represents a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of congestive heart failure due to systolic dysfunction. Since its modest beginnings in the 1990s, cardiac resynchronization therapy has gained widespread acceptance as a useful adjunct to pharmacologic therapy for congestive heart failure. Randomized trials have consistently shown functional improvement in pati...
متن کاملEffect of cardiac sympathetic nervous activity on mode of death in congestive heart failure.
AIMS To investigate whether strong cardiac sympathetic activity contributes primarily to sudden death or to worsening heart failure, and to determine the relationship of the size of cardiac noradrenaline stores to the mode of death. METHODS AND RESULTS The study population comprised 116 patients with congestive heart failure (ejection fraction 19+/-7%) and a mean follow-up of 18+/-19 months. ...
