Acute heart failure with preserved systolic function.
Many patients with acute heart failure have marked hypertension and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. In these patients, the heart failure usually does not result from transient systolic dysfunction or valvular abnormalities but rather results from diastolic dysfunction. Treatment of this condition includes control of hypertension, cautious diuresis, and, if necessary, ventilatory s...
متن کاملHeart failure with preserved systolic function. A different natural history?
Three well-controlled epidemiology studies in the U.S. have reported that 40% of incident congestive heart failure (CHF) cases and 50% to 60% of prevalent CHF cases occur in the setting of preserved systolic function. This condition has been termed "diastolic heart failure" (DHF). Despite minor differences in the types of populations examined, these community-based studies have established DHF ...
متن کاملTreatment of heart failure with preserved systolic function.
Heart failure is a major public health problem. Heart failure with preserved systolic function (HF-PSF) is a common form, which is difficult to diagnose. Results of recent studies show that HF-PSF has a poor prognosis, with an annual survival rate similar to that of heart failure with left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Despite these findings, the therapeutic management of HF-PSF is not clea...
متن کاملDoppler tissue imaging to assess systolic function in Chagas' disease.
OBJECTIVE To assess the usefulness of Doppler tissue imaging (DTI) for evaluating the systolic function of chagasic patients with and without electrocardiographic abnormalities, in comparision with echocardiographic study. METHODS We studied 77 patients divided into 3 groups as follows: group 1 - control; group 2 - chagasic patients with normal electrocardiographic findings; and group 3 - cha...
