Recognition and treatment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 1990B ASED ON EXTENSIVE research, it has become possible to focus on individual factors that cause or contribute to the clinical syndrome of congestive heart failure. These factors include the effects of ischemia and hypertrophy, changes in the peripheral circulation, alterations in reflex and neurohumoral function, the interdependent function of the right

Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction: Risks, Identification, and Treatment
Progress in Cardiovascular Nursing, 2004Risk factors of cardiovascular disease, such as hypertension, diabetes, and myocardial infarction, if left untreated, will increase the risk of the development of chronic heart failure. Much is known about the pathophysiology and effective treatments of chronic heart failure from left ventricular systolic dysfunction; however, little clinical trial ...

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
2018Abstract In Chapter 7, the echocardiographic assessment of diastolic LV function is outlined. In the first part of the chapter, the normal physiology of diastole is summarized and the disease processes that lead to diastolic dysfunction are described.

A rare cause of erectile dysfunction: left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
Minerva Cardioangiologica, 2020The aim of this study was to investigate the association between left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) and erectile dysfunction (ED) without overt cardiovascular disease.A total of 80 patients with LVDD and without a history of coronary artery disease were compared with 80 age- and gender-matched healthy controls.

The Physiological Basis of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1988Overall cardiac pump function requires adequate ventricular diastolic filling as well as normal systolic ejection. Abnormalities of the rate or extent of myocardial relaxation (diastolic dysfunction) have been described in a large variety of clinical conditions, including hypertrophy, ischemia, and after cardiac surgery.

Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in Chronic Aortic Dissection
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2007In chronic aortic dissection, compression of the true lumen by the expanded false lumen may be a cause of left ventricular afterload elevation, which may result in diastolic dysfunction. We compared the left ventricular diastolic function by echocardiography between those patients who had double-barrel descending aortic dissection and those who did not.

Adiponectin and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
Heart, 2010To the Editor: The recent publication by Unno et al concluded that adiponectin is an indicator of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. …

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Diastolic Dysfunction
2001Our understanding of systemic hypertension and its vascular complications has been expanding steadily in the past two decades. This progress has refined methods for the measurement of hypertensive disease complications and allowed an inquiry into the clinical factors that may accelerate them.

Atrium electromechanical interval in left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2011Eur J Clin Invest 2011AbstractBackground Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction has great effects on the left atrium (LA). A recently developed electromechanical interval (PA‐TDI), which was determined as the time interval from the initiation of P wave deflection to the peak of local lateral LA tissue Doppler imaging signal, was reported to be ...

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
Abstract This chapter discusses echocardiographic techniques used in the assessment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. It begins by discussing the normal physiology of diastole, as well as the conditions that lead to dysfunction. The chapter continues with echocardiographic assessment of diastolic dysfunction using 2D imaging,openaire +1 more source
