The role of the diastolic stress echocardiographic test in the diagnosis of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction

چکیده
We present the case of a 68-year-old female patient with exertional dyspnea, mild pretibial oedema and echocardiographically verified enlarged left atrium, but preserved ventricular systolic function normal filling pressures at rest. NT-proBNP values were within reference values. The diastolic stress echocardiographic test confirms presence heart failure ejection fraction (HFpEF). This report represents complexity diagnosing HFpEF in everyday clinical practice.

15 صفحه اولHeart failure with preserved ejection fraction - unwinding the diagnosis mystique.
A precise diagnosis of diastolic dysfunction is often difficult and requires invasive techniques to determine left ventricular volume, relaxation, and compliance properties. At this current point of time there is no single non-invasive index available to adequately reflect diastolic function, perhaps because of the numerous factors that can alter diastolic function. In most clinical settings, d...
متن کاملThe clinical significance of plasma neopterin in heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction
AIMS Although inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of heart failure (HF), the precise pathophysiological role of inflammation in HF with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF) still remains unclear. Hence, we examined the clinical significance of plasma neopterin, an inflammatory biomarker, in HFpEF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS In the present study, we recru...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the current study was to define exercise-induced changes in indices of left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic properties in patients with chronic heart failure (HF), compare these changes in patients with HF and a reduced ejection fraction (EF) versus HF and a preserved EF, and compare the hemodynamic responses to activities of daily living with symptom-limited u...
