Heart 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 کاملHypertensive pulmonary oedema is due to diastolic dysfunction.
Nearly half of patients hospitalized with congestive heart failure are found to have preserved systolic function (i.e. a left ventricular ejection fraction greater than 0·50). Thus, most cardiologists presume that the heart failure in these patients is due to isolated diastolic dysfunction. However, not all experts have accepted the hypothesis that a large portion of patients presenting with pu...

متن کاملMechanisms of exercise intolerance in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
Approximately half of patients with heart failure (HF) have a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and with the changing age and comorbidity characteristics in the adult population, this number is growing rapidly. The defining symptom of HFpEF is exercise intolerance, but the specific mechanisms causing this common symptom remain debated and inadequately understood. Although diastolic dysfuncti...
متن کاملRight ventricular failure in patients with preserved ejection fraction and diastolic dysfunction: an underrecognized clinical entity.
It is well recognized that patients with severe left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction develop pulmonary venous hypertension or postcapillary pulmonary hypertension, which leads to an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and right ventricular (RV) systolic failure. It is often underrecognized, however, that patients with heart failure with preserved LV ejection fraction and diast...
