Effect of Exercise Training on Heart Rate Variability in Patients with Heart Failure After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Background: This study aims to evaluate the effect of exercise training on heart rate variability (HRV) and to determine the correlation between parameters of HRV and the ejection fraction in patients with heart failure after percutaneous coronary intervention.Material and Methods: Fifty patients with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 40% undergone percutaneous coronary intervention were r...
متن کاملSelf-care behaviors in patients with systolic heart failure
Background and Purpose: To improve life quality, and lower mortality and rehospitalization for heart failure patients, awareness and adherence to self-care behaviors are essential. This study aims to determine the adherence level to self-care behaviors in the patients with systolic heart failure hospitalized in Alborz hospital in Karaj andShahriar hospital, and it was conducted in 2013. Methods...
متن کاملPeriodontitis and bone metabolism in patients with advanced heart failure and after heart transplantation
AIMS Heart failure (HF) is a multi-organ, pro-inflammatory syndrome that impairs bone metabolism. Pro-inflammatory cytokines and bone catabolism enhance periodontal disease, a local inflammatory, bacteria-induced disease that causes bone loss and periodontal soft tissue destruction. METHODS AND RESULTS Medical and dental examinations were performed on patients with HF (n = 39), following hear...
متن کاملCerebral blood flow in patients with chronic heart failure before and after heart transplantation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Arterial blood pressure and cardiac output are often reduced in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Counterregulatory mechanisms with increased neurohormonal activation and changes in the distribution of cardiac output are assumed to secure vital organ perfusion. However, clinical examination of patients with CHF frequently reveals neurological symptoms with dizzin...
متن کاملRespiratory dysfunction in congestive heart failure: correction after heart transplantation.
Severe chronic congestive heart failure (CCHF) is known to induce a restrictive ventilatory defect, with a small decrease in lung transfer factor for carbon monoxide (TLCO). The aim of the present work was to assess the reversibility of this dysfunction. We studied a group of 47 patients with CCHF, before and one year after heart transplantation. The measurements included static and dynamic lun...
