Surgical Ventricular Restoration to Reverse Left Ventricular Remodeling
Heart failure is one of the major health care issues in the Western world. An increasing number of patients are affected, leading to a high rate of hospitalization and high costs. Even with administration of the best available medical treatment, mortality remains high. The increase in left ventricular volume after a myocardial infarction is a component of the remodeling process. Surgical Ventri...
متن کاملLeft ventricular assist device-induced reverse ventricular remodeling.
Left ventricular assist devices provide chronic pressure and volume unloading of the dilated left ventricle in patients with end-stage heart failure. This is associated with reverse structural remodeling (normalization of the passive pressure-volume relationship), reverse molecular remodeling (increased expression of several genes involved in calcium metabolism that are down-regulated in heart ...
متن کاملLeft ventricular reverse remodeling but not clinical improvement predicts long-term survival after cardiac resynchronization therapy.
BACKGROUND In patients with severe heart failure and dilated cardiomyopathy, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves left ventricular (LV) systolic function associated with LV reverse remodeling and favorable 1-year survival. However, it is unknown whether LV reverse remodeling translates into a better long-term prognosis and what extent of reverse remodeling is clinically relevant, wh...
متن کاملSurgical left ventricular reverse remodeling: 111 months of follow-up
Objective: To present the experience of the Instituto de Cirurgia Cardiovascular do Oeste do Paraná (ICCOP) on the treatment of left ventricle aneurysms, by using endoventriculoplasty, with immediate septal exclusion (EVPSE), and a 111 months follow-up. Methods: Between April 1999 and April 2006, 28 patients underwent EVPSE, a procedure performed by the author of the present study. Pre-, transa...
متن کاملRestrictive annuloplasty and coronary revascularization in ischemic mitral regurgitation results in reverse left ventricular remodeling.
BACKGROUND Data on combined coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and restrictive annuloplasty in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy are scarce, and the effect on reverse left ventricular (LV) remodeling is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS 51 patients with ischemic LV dysfunction (LV ejection fraction 31+/-8%) and severe mitral regurgitation (grade 3 to 4+) underwent CABG and restrictive annu...
