Hanging-associated left ventricular systolic dysfunction

Resuscitation, 2015
Although hanging injury is infrequent, its clinical course is usually devastating. Hanging patients usually need cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, hanging-associated cardiovascular damage has not been fully established. The aim of this study was to evaluate echocardiographic findings in patients with hanging injury.We enrolled 25 patients ...

Evaluating left ventricular systolic dysfunction: Stress echocardiography

Journal of Nuclear Cardiology, 2015
Dyspnea is a common complaint in clinical practice. It has been shown to be a strong predictor of mortality in patients referred for stress testing to evaluate the cardiac reasons for symptoms. 1 Echocardiography and commonly stress echocardiography are high-yield initial tests in evaluation of patients with unexplained dyspnea.

Prospective validation of a deep learning electrocardiogram algorithm for the detection of left ventricular systolic dysfunction

Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2019
We sought to validate a deep learning algorithm designed to predict an ejection fraction (EF) less than or equal to 35% based on the 12‐lead electrocardiogram (ECG) in a large prospective cohort.

Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction and Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy

Critical Care Nursing Quarterly, 2003
Heart failure is a devastating chronic and progressive cardiac disorder affecting millions of Americans annually. Identifying the cause and initiating treatment early is the key to attempting to slow the progression of the condition. Recommended therapy is treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, diuretics, digoxin, beta blockers,

Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction and Ischemic Cardiomyopathy

Critical Care Nursing Quarterly, 2003
Coronary artery disease is the primary risk factor for left ventricular systolic dysfunction and the most common cause of heart failure. Heart failure is the prevailing diagnosis for hospital admissions in the United States for people over 65 years of age.

Postresuscitation Left Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic Dysfunction

Circulation, 1997
Background Global left ventricular dysfunction after successful resuscitation is well documented and appears to be a major contributing factor in limiting long-term survival after initial recovery from out-of-hospital sudden cardiac death.

Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction Identification by Motion Analysis

2005 IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology 27th Annual Conference, 2005
This paper presents a new technique for identification of regional dysfunctions in the left ventricle from 2-D echocardiography. It uses a novel left ventricular border tracking algorithm based on Fuzzy inference system. In this paper we show how the regional dysfunction present in the left ventricle can be identified by tracking the movement of centre

Heart failure: left ventricular systolic dysfunction

2016
Abstract Heart failure (HF) is a growing problem worldwide and poses an especially large public health burden. It represents a new epidemic of cardiovascular disease, affecting nearly 5.8 million people in the United States, and over 23 million worldwide. Nevertheless, in Europe, fears of an impending HF ‘epidemic’ could not be confirmed

Aldosterone induces left ventricular subclinical systolic dysfunction

Journal of Hypertension, 2018
Primary aldosteronism is associated with a higher incidence of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction than essential hypertension. However, systolic function via endocardial measurements is similar between patients with primary aldosteronism and essential hypertension. Speckle-tracking echocardiography is a sensitive tool which can
