Diastolic Function in Heart Failure [PDF]

Clinical 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.

Diastolic function in Steinert’s disease [PDF]

Neurology International, 2014
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (MD) is the most common autosomal dominant muscular dystrophy in adults. Cardiac involvement is mainly characterized by conduction abnormalities and arrhythmias.

Echocardiographic assessment of diastolic function

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2017
The stepwise approach in evaluation of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function is essential in any patients with dyspnea on exertion or heart failure. Many of them have normal to near-normal ejection fractions (EFs).

Diastolic function and dysfunction in athletes. [PDF]

Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Imaging
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is often most profound in male athletes and in athletes with the greatest volumes of endurance training and is characterized by chamber enlargement and a mild-to-modest hypertrophy. The diastolic filling of the left ventricle (LV) is a complex process including the early recoil of the contracted LV, the ...

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

BMC 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 ...

NO and cardiac diastolic function [PDF]

Cardiovascular Research, 1999
Time for primary review 34 days. Since the first report of a role for nitric oxide (NO) in modulating myocardial contractile function in 1991 [1], an enormous number of studies have been published in this field (recently reviewed in Refs. [2–4]). It is now recognised that, under physiological conditions, the major sources of NO that are important for

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

Frontiers 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.
