The effect of propofol on the grading of diastolic function: a prospective observational study [PDF]

open access: goldBMC Anesthesiology
Background Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction accounts for approximately half the cases of heart failure in the community. Its strong association with both peri-operative and post-operative adverse outcomes in both non-cardiac and cardiac surgical ...

Diastolic function and cardiovascular events in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. Improving risk stratification with left atrial strain [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundA limited number of studies have examined the prognostic significance of diastolic function in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in a general population referred for transthoracic echocardiography. Our aim was to

Left ventricular diastolic function and cardiotoxic chemotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Left ventricular ejection fraction falls when the myocardium has already lost a significant portion of its functional capacity. There are conflicting data on whether diastolic dysfunction precedes systolic dysfunction after cardiotoxic ...

Patient Outcomes by Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic Function [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Left ventricular dysfunction is characterized by systolic and diastolic parameters, leading to heart failure (HF) with reduced or preserved ejection fraction (EF), respectively.

The role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in the assessment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Heart failure (HF) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Current classifications of HF categorize patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 50% or greater as HF with preserved ejection fraction or HFpEF.

Diastolic Function in Heart Failure

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology, 2015
Heart failure has reached epidemic proportions, and diastolic heart failure or heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) constitutes about 50% of all heart failure admissions.

A cross sectional study to compare cardiac structure and diastolic function in adolescents and young adults with youth-onset type 1 and type 2 diabetes: The SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth Study

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2021
Aims To compare left ventricular structure (LV) and diastolic function in young adults with youth- onset diabetes by type, determine the prevalence of abnormal diastolic function by diabetes type using published values from age similar healthy controls ...

Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction Assessment with Dual-Source CT. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
To assess the impact of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction on left atrial (LA) phasic volume and function using dual-source CT (DSCT) and to find a viable alternative prognostic parameter of CT for LV diastolic dysfunction through quantitative ...
