Systolic and diastolic ventricular dyssynchrony in systolic and diastolic heart failure.
n 1952 Carl J. Wiggers gave the Henry Jackson Memorial ecture before the Massachusetts Heart Association in hich he reviewed his work over the previous 30 years (1). y analyzing ventricular pressure pulses, he demonstrated lterations in ventricular contraction patterns produced by ericardial effusion, hypervolemia, oligemia, arterial hyperension, aortic and pulmonary stenosis, idioventricular h...
متن کاملDiastolic heart failure: what, so what and now what?
The Elephant in the Room Until two decades ago, the notion that heart failure (HF) could occur in the presence of normal ejection fraction (EF) was met with great skepticism. While most physicians could recall encounters with hypertensive elderly ladies in acute pulmonary oedema despite a normal EF, it was not until large epidemiologic studies provided evidence for the existence of this syndrom...
متن کاملSystolic and diastolic heart failure in the community.
CONTEXT The heart failure (HF) syndrome is heterogeneous. While it can be defined by ejection fraction (EF) and diastolic function, data on the characteristics of HF in the community are scarce, as most studies are retrospective, hospital-based, and rely on clinically indicated tests. Further, diastolic function is seldom systematically assessed based on standardized techniques. OBJECTIVE To ...
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 کاملSystolic and diastolic heart failure: differences and similarities.
BACKGROUND Diastolic heart failure (DHF) and systolic heart failure (SHF) are 2 clinical subsets of the syndrome of chronic heart failure that are most commonly encountered in clinical practice. METHODS AND RESULTS The clinically overt DHF and SHF appear to be 2 separate syndromes with distinctive morphologic and functional changes although signs, symptoms, and prognosis are very similar. In ...
