Diastolic dysfunction

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 2003
Although the annual mortality rate for diastolic heart failure is better than that for systolic heart failure, it is still greater than that for age-matched controls. Five-year mortality rates are about 50% for patients with systolic heart failure and are about 25% for patients with diastolic heart failure.

Is Cardiac Diastolic Dysfunction a Part of Post-Menopausal Syndrome?

JACC. Heart failure, 2019
Post-menopausal women exhibit an exponential increase in the incidence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction compared with men of the same age, which indicates a potential role of hormonal changes in subclinical and clinical diastolic ...

Significance Of Diastolic Dysfunction Of The Heart

Annual Review of Medicine, 1991
Diastolic dysfunction is an important cause of the clinical syndrome of congestive heart failure. Traditionally, the syndrome of pulmonary congestion due to the elevation of left heart filling pressure has been attributed to the depressed ability of the heart to eject blood during systole, with a secondary increase in left ventricular volume.

Recommendations for the Evaluation of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function by Echocardiography and for Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Diagnosis: An Update From the American Society of Echocardiography.

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography
Echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function is an integral part of the routine evaluation of patients presenting with symptoms of dyspnea or clinical concerns for heart failure.

ECHO parameters of diastolic dysfunction

Perfusion, 2008
Most 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.

Post-ischemic diastolic dysfunction

Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 1994
Though a sustained post-ischemic decrease in contractile function has been clearly established, post-ischemic diastolic function has not been thoroughly investigated. Accordingly, 11 anesthetized (isoflurane 1%) open-chest beagles were instrumented to measure left ventricular pressure and dimensions (circumferential length and wall thickness) in an ...

Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction Predicts Mortality in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis.

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2018
BACKGROUND Primary cardiac affection is common and is a major cause of death in systemic sclerosis (SSc), but there are knowledge gaps regarding the effect of cardiac dysfunction on mortality.

Diastolic dysfunction and atrial fibrillation

Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology, 2008
Isolated diastolic heart failure (DHF) is defined as heart failure with preserved left ventricular (LV) systolic function in the absence of valve disease. DHF is a clinical diagnosis confirmed by echocardiography and is presumed to be due to diastolic dysfunction (DD).

Diastolic dysfunction in heart failure

Journal of Cardiac Failure, 1997
Diastolic dysfunction and diastolic failure of the heart have become widely recognized clinical entities. Whereas most conditions related to diastolic dysfunction and failure are the mere consequence of systolic cardiac failure, there also exists a distinct primary form of diastolic failure (1-4).

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
