Diastolic Dysfunction and Diastolic Heart Failure
2000It 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.

ECHO parameters of diastolic dysfunction
Perfusion, 2008Most patients with cardiac disease have diastolic dysfunction which is characterized by impaired diastolic filling and/or abnormal diastolic relaxation. The trans-esophageal echocardiography (TEE) used routinely during open-heart surgical procedures has exceptional resolution that may permit the identification and grading of diastolic dysfunction.

Diastolic dysfunction is characterized by an abnormal function of one or both ventricles which is manifested by an increased resistance to diastolic filling. The pathophysiology of diastolic dysfunction includes relaxation disturbances, abnormal diastolic filing and/or abnormal passive elastic properties.

[Diastolic dysfunction and diastolic heart failure].
Georgian medical news, 2008There are frequent clinical Cases in Cardiological practice when cardiac failure develops together with normal systolic function of left ventricle. In these patients after revealing the diastolic dysfunction the heart diastolic failure is diagnosed, but in frequent cases this diagnosis is based on exclusion method.

Diastolic dysfunction of the heart is characterized by normal left ventricular contractility and normal ejection fraction, however ventricular relaxation is impaired. In systolic dysfunction, ventricular contractility and ejection fraction are reduced, in addition to impaired relaxation.

Heart Failure from Diastolic Dysfunction
Dimensions of Critical Care Nursing, 1996Heart failure from diastolic dysfunction is a clinical syndrome similar to, but distinct from, failure from systolic dysfunction. Because the standard cardiac diagnostic tools may not be helpful, the advance practice nurse and physician collaborate on the diagnosis.

Diastolic dysfunction and myocardial energetics
European Heart Journal, 1990Myocardial 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.

Recenti progressi in medicina, 2007Clinical and epidemiological population-based studies have showed that about 30 to 50% of patients with congestive heart failure have a preserved left-ventricular ejection fraction. This condition is defined as diastolic heart failure. The definition, pathophysiology, symptomatology, diagnosis and treatment of diastolic heart failure are briefly ...
