Symptomatic and incipient congestive heart failure--the SOLVD experience.
نویسنده
چکیده
To present results of the SOLVD 4-year clinical trials of enalapril on two groups of patients with left ventricular ejection fraction under 36%, one group with and the other group without symptomatic congestive heart failure. Observed mortality is compared with expeded mortality derived from the 1975-1980 Basic Select Tables, because of the high degree of exclusion utilized for patients with associated risk factors, in the recruiting of patients for entry into the study.

Background: Vein of Galen aneurysm (VGA) is the most common form of symptomatic cerebrovascular malformation in neonates. It develops in a fetus in the first trimester of pregnancy due to unknown reasons, but it is likely to have a genetic etiology. The prognosis of VGA is usually poor, particularly in newborns with heart failure due to high-flow intracerebral shunt. Surgery and endovascular em...

متن کاملA New Approach to Detect Congestive Heart Failure Using Symbolic Dynamics Analysis of Electrocardiogram Signal
The aim of this study is to show that the measures derived from Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals many a time perform better than the same measures obtained from heart rate (HR) signals. A comparison was made to investigate how far the nonlinear symbolic dynamics approach helps to characterize the nonlinear properties of ECG signals and HR signals, and thereby discriminate between normal and cong...
