Diastolic Dysfunction and Diastolic Heart Failure

2000
It has been shown that heart failure frequently occurs in the absence of left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction, and diastolic dysfunction is considered to be the underlying cause for this phenotype of heart failure: isolated diastolic heart failure.

Therapeutic approaches to diastolic dysfunction

Current Hypertension Reports, 2009
Progressive abnormalities of passive stiffness or active relaxation of the myocardium that impair ventricular filling during diastole may be an important contributor to the development of heart failure in patients with preserved ejection fraction. In this review, we discuss the epidemiology and pathophysiology of diastolic dysfunction and heart failure

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction

QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 1994
Diastolic heart failure is common, particularly in patients with coronary artery disease and hypertension. Although it does not contribute to heart failure mortality to the same degree as systolic dysfunction, it is responsible for significant morbidity.

Diastolic dysfunction and myocardial energetics

European Heart Journal, 1990
Myocardial relaxation is an energy-dependent process. Indeed, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is required to pump free myoplasmic calcium back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It is also necessary to extrude the calcium ions which enter the cell during the plateau phase of the action potential.

Diastolic dysfunction in the older heart

Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2005
f t f m c l l a s N THE NEXT 50 YEARS, the United States will experience an unprecedented increase in the size of its older adult and lderly population. According to US Census Bureau projecions, the number of persons 65 years of age or older will ncrease from approximately 35 million in the year 2000 to pproximately 82 million in 2050, a net increase ...

Diastolic Dysfunction in Women

2004
Not surprisingly, approximately half of the nearly 5 million people in the United States who have congestive heart failure (CHF) are women. Between 1985 and 1995, the number of hospitalizations for patients with heart failure increased from 1.7 to 2.6 million, and more than half of these patients were women.
