Pulsatile hemodynamics in congestive heart failure.
Pulse pressure, an indirect measure of vascular stiffness and pulsatile load, predicts clinical events in congestive heart failure (CHF), suggesting that abnormal pulsatile load may contribute to CHF. This study was designed to assess more direct measures of central pulsatile load in CHF. Noninvasive hemodynamic evaluations were performed in 28 subjects with CHF and 40 controls using calibrated...
متن کاملPulsatile hemodynamics and clinical outcomes in acute heart failure.
BACKGROUND The role of pulsatile hemodynamics in the management of patients with acute heart failure syndrome (AHFS) remains to be elucidated. We investigated the changes of the pulsatile hemodynamics along the hospital course of AHFS in relation to short-term outcomes. METHODS A total of 80 AHFS patients (73.2 ± 14.1 years, 82.5% men) were enrolled and followed up for up to 6 months after di...
متن کاملExercise Hemodynamics and Metabolism in Severe Congestive Heart Failure
The acute hemodynamic and metabolic effects of amrinone during exercise were studied in eight patients with severe congestive heart failure. The patients exercised to exhaustion on an upright bicycle ergometer at a fixed work load of 25 W. During the control period of exercise, exhaustion occurred at 3.16 + 1.39 minutes. Stroke volume increased from 29.5 ± 5.8 to 38.7 + 9.5 ml (p < 0.01), arter...
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 کاملCongestive Heart Failure
The heart is composed of two independent pumping systems, one on the left side and one on the right. The right chamber, or right atrium, of the heart relaxes and expands to fill with blood that has returned from the body. (This relaxed action causes diastolic pressure, recorded as the second and lower number when measuring blood pressure). The used blood is poor in oxygen and rich in carbon dio...
