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.

Diastolic Dysfunction and COPD Exacerbation
Postgraduate Medicine, 2009Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation is a frequent cause of hospital admissions. In one-third of patients, exacerbations have no known cause. We studied whether the presence of diastolic dysfunction (DD) in this subgroup of patients is associated with longer duration of hospitalization and more frequent exacerbations.Retrospective ...

Diastolic dysfunction is a syndrome characterized by impaired ventricular filling. Abnormalities in diastolic function can generally be classified as being the result of abnormal relaxation or of abnormal compliance. Diastolic dysfunction is frequently present in patients with heart failure and it is occasionally the dominant or sole cause of symptoms.

Diastolic dysfunction and atrial fibrillation
Heart, 2015Development of effective atrial fibrillation (AF) prevention strategies has become a research priority to reduce the global burden of this arrhythmia. With an estimated prevalence in 2010 of 8.8 million adults aged >55 years and a projected prevalence of 17.9 million by 2060 in the European Union,1 AF is the most frequent cardiac arrhythmia and is ...

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 in the older heart
Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2005f 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 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.

Assessment and treatment of diastolic dysfunction.
Minerva cardioangiologica, 1993Congestive heart failure almost invariably includes a component of diastolic dysfunction, and in many patients impaired diastolic filling is the predominant functional abnormality. Failure of myocardial relaxation depends on abnormalities of calcium uptake as well as on the systolic and diastolic loads, the nonuniformity of load and the passive elastic

[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.
