Diastole [PDF]

HCA Healthc J Med
Diastole is the space between heartbeats. It is in this space that the heart actively rests, refills. These periods of relaxation are what allow the next heartbeat to occur. A heart without diastole is in heart failure. In medical training, we are raised on the myth that constant effort equals devotion, that rest is a luxury.

Diastolic coronary resistance and capacitance are independent of the duration of diastole

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1991
Systolic myocardial contraction may produce changes in coronary resistance and capacitance that persist throughout a normal diastole. In addition, coronary resistance and capacitance as determined in the arrested heart may not accurately describe normal diastolic behavior.

Early diastolic filling dynamics in diastolic dysfunction [PDF]

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2003
The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the rate of peak early mitral inflow velocity and the peak early diastolic mitral annular tissue velocities in normal controls and to compare them with subjects with diastolic dysfunction.The relationship between early passive diastolic transmitral flow and peak early mitral annular ...

Inorganic phosphate accelerates cardiac myofilament relaxation in response to lengthening

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Myocardial relaxation in late systole is enhanced by increasing velocities of lengthening. Given that inorganic phosphate (Pi) can rebind to the force-producing myosin enzyme prior to MgADP release and hasten crossbridge detachment, we hypothesized that ...

Color Flow Doppler Echocardiography in Healthy Racing Pigeons (Columba livia f. domestica) and the Evidence of Physiological Blood Flow Vortex Formations

Veterinary Sciences, 2020
In avian medicine, Doppler sonographic techniques are used to visualize and estimate blood flow in the heart. In the literature there is a lack of standardized studies of the use of color Doppler flow on healthy avian species.

Structure-based finite strain modelling of the human left ventricle in diastole [PDF]

, 2013
Finite strain analyses of the left ventricle provide important information on heart function and have the potential to provide insights into the biomechanics of myocardial contractility in health and disease. Systolic dysfunction is the most common cause

Comparison of diastolic function in children with transfusion dependent beta thalassemia major by tissue and conventional doppler imaging indices and its correlation with serum ferritin levels

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2019
Regular blood transfusions for children with beta thalassemia major (β- TM) results in iron overload cardiomyopathy/cardiac failure. Mortality in these children is most often because of heart failure.

Numerical study of hemodynamics after stent implantation during the cardiac cycle

Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2021
The descending aortic aneurysm is one of the most catastrophic cardiovascular emergencies resulting in high mortality worldwide. Clinical observations have pointed out that stent implantation in the sick aorta should probably allow stabilization of the ...
