Left-ventricular dysfunction [PDF]

open access: possibleThe Lancet, 1998
SIR—Theresa McDonagh (Sept 20, p 829) and Martin Cowie (Nov 8, p 1349) and their colleagues highlight some of the difficulties associated with the diagnosis and treatment of patients with impaired ventricular function. In the Glasgow study (McDonagh), a total of 43 individuals had echocardiographic evidence of an ejection fraction of 30% or less out of

Prevalence of heart failure and left ventricular dysfunction in China: the China Hypertension Survey, 2012–2015

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, 2019
Heart failure (HF) is a major health burden worldwide. However, there is no nationwide epidemiological data on HF in China after 2000. The aims of this study are (i) to determine the prevalence of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and HF (with reduced ...

Reversible Left Ventricular Dysfunction

Echocardiography, 2000
The extent and degree of myocardial viability are important parameters in the risk stratification of patients with significant left ventricular dysfunction secondary to coronary artery disease. Although several imaging modalities can identify viable myocardium, dobutamine stress echocardiography has gained considerable importance as an accurate, safe ...

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction

QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 1994
Diastolic heart failure is common, particularly in patients with coronary artery disease and hypertension. Although it does not contribute to heart failure mortality to the same degree as systolic dysfunction, it is responsible for significant morbidity.

Ischemia and Left Ventricular Dysfunction

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1998
There is convincing evidence that (prolonged) episodes of myocardial ischemia lead to impairment of left ventricular (LV) function and ultimately to chronic congestive heart failure (CHF), but whether the opposite is also true has not been well established.

Left ventricular diastolic filling in patients with left ventricular dysfunction

International Journal of Cardiology, 1985
The pattern of abnormal left ventricular diastolic filling and its specificity in coronary disease patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction has received little attention. We evaluated the left ventricular diastolic filling curve derived from gated blood pool scans in 21 normals, 61 coronary disease patients with ejection fractions less than or

Revascularization in left ventricular dysfunction

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2019
The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of revascularization in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and left ventricular dysfunction (LVD).Patients with significant CAD and LVD are a high-risk patient population. They make up a minority of the cases from the largest, prospective coronary revascularization trials.
