The clinical benefits provided by trimetazidine (VastarelW MR) in left ventricular dysfunction patients
Metabolic treatment involves the use of drugs that improve cardiomyocyte function. Trimetazidine (Vastarel1MR) is the most investigated drug in this group with a well-established role in the treatment of chronic angina. The available data suggest that therapy combining trimetazidine and hemodynamic drugs is effective in patients with chronic heart failure, leading to additional benefits such as...
متن کاملHigh myocardial 18F-FDG uptake after chemotherapy in the presence of left ventricular dysfunction as well as 3-month later with no left ventricular dysfunction
Diffusely increased glucose metabolic activity in the right and left ventricles using 2-deoxy-2-(F-18) fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDGPET/CT) and global left ventricular hypokinesia at echocardiography can be evident in acute myocarditis. But, there has been no case report that the ventricular 18F-FDGuptake remains unchanged even ...
متن کاملechocardiographic assessment of inappropriate left ventricular mass and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with diastolic dysfunction
background: early diagnosis of left ventricular mass (lvm) inappropriateness and left ventricular hypertrophy (lvh) can result in preventing diastolic left ventricular dysfunction and its related morbidity and mortality. this study was performed to determine if diastolic dysfunction is associated with lvh and inappropriate lvm. methods: one hundred and twenty five uncomplicated hypertensi...
متن کاملDiastolic Left Ventricular Dysfunction A Clinical Appraisal
Objective: In dilated cardiomyopathy and in athlete’s heart, progressive LV dilatation is accompanied by rightward displacement of thediastolic LV pressure–volume relation. In dilated cardiomyopathy, an increase in diastolic LV stiffness can limit this rightwarddisplacement thereby decreasing LV systolic performance. Because nitric oxide (NO) reduces diastolic LV stiffness, the present ...
متن کاملQRS duration and echocardiographic evidence of left ventricular dyssynchrony in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction.
OBJECTIVE To determine the association between left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony assessed by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 35% and prolonged ventricular depolarization on electrocardiography. STUDY DESIGN A cross-sectional study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY The Aga Khan University, Karachi, from June to September 2007. METHODOLO...
