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.

Therapeutic approaches to diastolic dysfunction
Current Hypertension Reports, 2009Progressive 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

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 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 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.

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
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.

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.

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 ...
