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 کاملChanges in renal function in congestive heart failure.
Both cardiovascular and renal diseases are common and frequently coexist in the same patient. Indeed, renal dysfunction has been shown to be a more powerful independent predictor of poor outcomes in heart failure (HF) than left ventricular ejection fraction or functional class. Furthermore, acute kidney injury is a frequent therapeutic concern in heart failure. Consequently, there has been much...
متن کاملFrequency response of the renal vasculature in congestive heart failure.
BACKGROUND The renal vasoconstrictor response to renal nerve stimulation is greater in congestive heart failure (CHF) rats than in control rats. This study tested the hypothesis that the enhanced renal vasoconstrictor response to renal nerve stimulation in CHF is a result of an impairment in the low-pass filter function of the renal vasculature. METHODS AND RESULTS In response to conventional...
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...
متن کاملCongestive heart failure.
Patients with acute decompensated heart failure are usually critically ill and require immediate treatment. However, most are not volume overloaded. Emergency department (ED) management is based on rapid initiation of noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation and aggressive titration of nitrates. Afterload reduction with an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor can be considered. A diuretic s...
