CONGESTIVE 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 کاملPathophysiology and Natural History Congestive Heart Failure
This study was designed to determine the pathophysiologic basis of increased exercise ventilation in the presence of chronic heart failure. Sixty-four ambulatory patients with chronic heart failure and 38 age-matched normal control subjects performed exercise according to identical staged, symptom-limited bicycle exercise protocols with measurement of hemodynamic, ventilatory, and metabolic res...
متن کاملPathophysiology and Natural History Congestive Heart Failure
Patients with heart failure have increased vascular resistance and evidence for increased neurohumoral drive. High levels of circulating norepinephrine are found in patients with heart failure, but it is not known whether they reflect increased sympathetic neural activity or result from altered synthesis, release, or metabolism of norepinephrine. We used microneurography (peroneal nerve) to dir...
متن کاملPathophysiology and Natural History - Congestive Heart Failure
The reduced responsiveness of the renin-angiotensin system to hemodynamic changes in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) could be due to a defect of the juxtaglomerular apparatus. To test this hypothesis, the responses to viprostol, an analog of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) that is known to stimulate both the macula densa and the juxtaglomerular cells, and to nitroprusside were compared in ...

The purpose of this study was to identify the histologic characteristics of human myocardium in congestive heart failure (CHF) by cellular hypertrophy, nuclear area, endocardial thickness, and percentage of fibrosis and to correlate histologic findings to cause, severity, and duration of disease. Right ventricular endomyocardial biopsies from 109 patients were quantitatively analyzed. Ten patie...
