The Accuracy of the Electrocardiogram in Identifying Chronic Heart Failure due to Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

open access: yesمجلة المختار للعلوم, 2013
There is a common assumption that a normal electrocardiography rules out chronic heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). In this research work, an assessment of the value of electrocardiography in identifying patients with ...

Atorvastatin in Nonischemic Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2006
Sola et al. ([1][1]) found that atorvastatin improved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction and reduced LV end diastolic dimensions in patients with nonischemic heart failure (HF) ([1][1]). Nonischemic HF is a heterogeneous condition with a variable clinical course.

Effect of Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction on Response to Warfarin [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Cardiology, 2016
Candidates for chronic warfarin therapy often have co-morbid conditions, such as heart failure, with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. Previous reports have demonstrated an increased risk of over-anticoagulation due to reduced warfarin dose requirement in patients with decompensated heart failure.

Evaluation of left ventricular function in diabetics with ischemic heart disease

open access: yesمجلة كلية الطب, 2010
Background: Diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease, with a higher incidence of myocardial infarction and sudden death. Left ventricular dysfunction is difficult to diagnose and to differentiate into diastolic and systolic ...

Early detection of Asymptomatic left ventricle Dysfunction in diabetic and pre-diabetic Patients [PDF]

open access: yesMinia Journal of Medical Research, 2019
Diabetic patients with normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) are frequently associated with asymptomatic left ventricle systolic dysfunction, that LVEF is not known to be a sensitive marker for the early detection of subclinical LV systolic ...

Sepsis-related cardiomyopathy: Not an easy task for ICU physicians

open access: yesJournal of Intensive Medicine, 2022
Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction is common. In addition to acute coronary syndrome, at least two types of left ventricular dysfunction can occur in septic patients: typical septic cardiomyopathy (SC) and sepsis-related takotsubo cardiomyopathy (ST).

Subclinical Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in Patients with Septic Shock Based on Sepsis-3 Definition: A Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography Study

open access: yesCritical Care Research and Practice, 2020
Introduction. Left ventricular dysfunction is quite common in septic shock. Speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) is a novel, highly sensitive method for assessing left ventricular function, capable of detecting subclinical myocardial dysfunction ...

Reversible Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction Secondary to Pazopanib [PDF]

open access: yesCureus, 2018
Pazopanib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor used for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma and advanced soft tissue sarcoma. We describe a case report of a patient with spindle cell sarcoma who developed severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction after starting pazopanib therapy with subsequent recovery of left ventricular ejection fraction ...
