بررسی فراوانی نشانگر CTnI و عوامل مرتبط با آن در بیماران با دیاستولیک دیس‌فانکشن AHF (PEF)

Abstract Background: Diastolic heart failure comprises 50 percent of cases of heart failure. The implications of increased levels of cardiac troponin I (CTnI) on congestive heart failure with preserved systolic function (AHF PEF) have been poorly evaluated. We hypothesized that its level might be elevated in AHF PEF so this evaluation was done in patients referred to Taleghani hospital with ...

Key role of congestion in natural history of heart failure

The natural course of heart failure with decreased and preserved systolic function is almost identical. The current concept of heart failure where decreased cardiac output plays the major role does not explain this similarity. We suggest a revised concept of heart failure where congestion plays the leading role. While congestion is almost invariably present in heart failure with normal and with...

[Differences in clinical profile and outcome in patients with decompensated heart failure and systolic dysfunction or preserved systolic function].

OBJECTIVES To compare the clinical characteristics and short- and long-term prognosis for chronic heart failure with left ventricular systolic dysfunction or preserved systolic function. PATIENTS AND METHOD Three-hundred twenty-eight consecutive patients with decompensated chronic heart failure were studied prospectively. Depending on ejection fraction, participants were classified as having ...

Comparison Between Ivabradine and Low-Dose Digoxin in the Therapy of Diastolic Heart Failure with Preserved Left Ventricular Systolic Function

Previous studies of non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE ACSs) complicated by heart failure (HF) have focused primarily on patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction defined by an ejection fraction (EF) <40%. Little is known about HF with preserved systolic function (EF > or =40%) in the NSTE ACS population. We identified high-risk patients with NSTE ACS (ischemic el...

[Clinical characteristics and medium-term prognosis of patients with heart failure and preserved systolic function. Do they differ in systolic dysfunction?].

OBJECTIVES To assess the prevalence, clinical profile and medium-term prognosis in patients with heart failure and preserved systolic ventricular function compared to those with systolic dysfunction. PATIENTS AND METHOD 153 patients were included, 62 with preserved systolic ventricular function (left ventricular ejection fraction > or = 45%) and 91 with impaired systolic ventricular function ...
