Independent and additive prognostic value of right ventricular systolic function and pulmonary artery pressure in patients with chronic heart failure.
OBJECTIVES We sought a better understanding of the coupling between right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) and pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), as it might improve the accuracy of the prognostic stratification of patients with heart failure. BACKGROUND Despite the long-standing view that systolic function of the right ventricle (RV) is almost exclusively dependent on the afterload that th...
متن کاملMicroalbuminuria in systolic and diastolic chronic heart failure patients.
BACKGROUND Microalbuminuria is considered a major risk factor predisposing to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Microalbuminuria levels in patients with or without diabetes have been associated with a higher risk of chronic heart failure (HF). However, there are limited data regarding prevalence of microalbuminuria in chronic heart failure and its prognostic value. The aim of this study w...
متن کاملPrognostic value of right ventricular myocardial performance index in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery
Abstract Background: Right ventricular myocardial performance index (RVMPI) is a Doppler–derived parameter of non-geometrical ventricular function that measures both systolic and diastolic functions of the right ventricle. The aim of this study is to compare prognostic value of RVMPI with global RV function in patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG). Methods: In a longitudinal ...
متن کاملChronic aortic regurgitation: prognostic value of left ventricular end-systolic dimension and end-diastolic radius/thickness ratio.
The prognostic value of preoperative echocardiographic data was assessed in 32 patients who underwent aortic valve replacement for chronic aortic regurgitation. All patients had preoperative studies and were followed up prospectively for 1 to 6 years after surgery. Postoperatively, 25 patients (Group A) achieved a normal left ventricular end-diastolic dimension and a significant regression of m...
متن کاملSelf-care behaviors in patients with systolic heart failure
Background and Purpose: To improve life quality, and lower mortality and rehospitalization for heart failure patients, awareness and adherence to self-care behaviors are essential. This study aims to determine the adherence level to self-care behaviors in the patients with systolic heart failure hospitalized in Alborz hospital in Karaj andShahriar hospital, and it was conducted in 2013. Methods...
