Trends in prevalence and outcome of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
BACKGROUND The prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction may be changing as a result of changes in population demographics and in the prevalence and treatment of risk factors for heart failure. Changes in the prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction may contribute to changes in the natural history of heart failure. We performed a study to define secular tr...
متن کاملHeart Failure with Preserved Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND The prevalence and clinical outcomes of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction after acute myocardial infarction have not been well elucidated. OBJECTIVE To analyze the prevalence of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction in acute myocardial infarction and its association with mortality. METHODS Patients with acute myocardial infa...
متن کاملCurrent Treatment of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: Should We Add Life to the Remaining Years or Add Years to the Remaining Life?
ACCORDING TO THE EJECTION FRACTION, PATIENTS WITH HEART FAILURE MAY BE DIVIDED INTO TWO DIFFERENT GROUPS: heart failure with preserved or reduced ejection fraction. In recent years, accumulating studies showed that increased mortality and morbidity rates of these two groups are nearly equal. More importantly, despite decline in mortality after treatment in regard to current guideline in patient...
متن کاملEffect of Exercise Training on Heart Rate Variability in Patients with Heart Failure After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Background: This study aims to evaluate the effect of exercise training on heart rate variability (HRV) and to determine the correlation between parameters of HRV and the ejection fraction in patients with heart failure after percutaneous coronary intervention.Material and Methods: Fifty patients with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 40% undergone percutaneous coronary intervention were r...
متن کاملPrognostic Importance of Changes in Cardiac Structure and Function in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction and the Impact of Spironolactone.
BACKGROUND Limited data exist regarding the impact of aldosterone antagonist therapy on cardiac structure and function in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and on the prognostic relevance of changes in cardiac structure and function in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. METHODS AND RESULTS Cardiac structure and function were assessed by quantitative echocardiography ...
متن کاملTeasing Apart Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Phenotypes With Echocardiographic Imaging
Phenotyping heart failure represents a major challenge for both research studies and clinical practice. Large-scale clinical trials have failed to achieve meaningful improvement in clinical outcomes with different pharmacological agents in patients with heart failure and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. Therefore, an alternative scheme for phenotyping heart failure is needed, which...
