Analysis of left ventricular behaviour in diastole by means of finite element method [PDF]
, 1979 The human left ventricle in diastole can be modelled as a passive structure with incremental internal pressure change being considered as the load. Recent developments in engineering stress analysis provide techniques for predicting the behaviour of ...

Impaired coronary blood flow at higher heart rates during atrial fibrillation: investigation via multiscale modelling [PDF]
, 2019 Background. Different mechanisms have been proposed to relate atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary flow impairment, even in absence of relevant coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the underlying hemodynamics remains unclear.

BMJ, 1976 There is hopeless confusion in the English-speaking world about the determination of the diastolic blood pressure by sphygmo manometry. In Britain generations of students have been taught that the point of muffling of the Korotkow sounds (often referred to as the fourth phase) should be taken as the index of diastolic pressure, and until recently all ...

Changes in left atrial deformation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Evaluation by vector velocity imaging. [PDF]
, 2012 OBJECTIVES: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents a generalized myopathic process affecting both ventricular and atrial myocardium. We assessed the global and regional left atrial (LA) function and its relation to left ventricular (LV) mechanics ...

Dose Impaired Relaxation of Left Ventricle Affect Early Outcomes [PDF]
Acta Medica Iranica, 2010 Although systolic dysfunction is revealed as a prognostic factor in cardiac surgery , the role of diastolic dysfunction as a predictive factor is less evaluated. In this retrospective study from 872 patients that underwent isolated coronary artery bypass

Diastolic dysfunction in hypertension
Hipertensión y Riesgo Vascular, 2017 Hypertension and coronary heart disease, often coexisting, are the most common risk factors for heart failure. The progression of hypertensive heart disease involves myocardial fibrosis and alterations in the left ventricular geometry that precede the functional change, initially asymptomatic.
