Can complexity decrease in Congestive Heart failure?
The complexity of a signal can be measured by the Recurrence period density entropy (RPDE) from the reconstructed phase space. We have chosen a window based RPDE method for the classification of signals, as RPDE is an average entropic measure of the whole phase space. We have observed the changes in the complexity in cardiac signals of normal healthy person (NHP) and congestive heart failure pa...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW The present review will examine the prognostic importance of atrial fibrillation and heart failure, explore the different therapeutic options for treating atrial fibrillation and present the results of the Atrial Fibrillation and Congestive Heart Failure (AF-CHF) trial. RECENT FINDINGS The Atrial Fibrillation and Congestive Heart Failure trial was a randomized trial involvin...
متن کاملCONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE IN CHILDREN: A SURVEY OF 114 PATIENTS
During a period of four years between June, IS, 1988 to June, IS, 1992 one hundred and fourteen patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) were admitted to the pediatric department of Taleghani General Hospital. During the above period, 192 patients with heart disease were hospitalized at this department and CHF was the cause of admission in 59.4% of them. Congenital heart disease (CHO) w...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation in patients with congestive heart failure.
CHF and AF are common problems that are frequently encountered together. These two disease states interact in a way that can result in a viscous cycle. This brief review will attempt to address the interaction between AF and CHF, atrial pathology and abnormal electrophysiology, clinical consequences, prognostic importance, and therapy.
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation in congestive heart failure: current management.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and congestive heart failure are common conditions and each predisposes to the development of the other. Basic research using animal models of the two conditions continues to yield insights that may improve therapies. The role of medical therapies aimed at the underlying structural changes in AF continues to be a subject of ongoing studies. Cardiac resynchronization the...
