Is the Hippocrates paradox really a paradox?
n the Editorial Comment by Lavie and Milani (1) accompanying he report by Reeves and associates (2), the correspondents used as heir title “Obesity and Cardiovascular Disease: The Hippocrates aradox?”. Lavie and Milani began their comment by quoting a tatement by Hippocrates, namely, “Sudden death is more comon in those who are naturally fat than in the lean.” Clearly ippocrates recognized the ...
متن کاملEchocardiographic study of the paradoxical arterial pulse in chronic obstructive lung disease.
In nine subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pulsus paradoxus, M-mode echocardiograms showed inspiratory augmentation of right ventricular dimensions and inspiratory decrease of left ventricular diastolic dimensions. In five subjects in whom the echocardiographic transistor was in the subxiphoid position, mean right ventricular dimensions increased during inspiration f...
متن کاملPulsus paradoxus.
Systolic blood pressure normally falls during quiet inspiration in normal individuals. Pulsus paradoxus is defined as a fall of systolic blood pressure of >10 mmHg during the inspiratory phase. Pulsus paradoxus can be observed in cardiac tamponade and in conditions where intrathoracic pressure swings are exaggerated or the right ventricle is distended, such as severe acute asthma or exacerbatio...
متن کاملVolvulus of the stomach--an unusual cause of pulsus paradoxus.
A patient with a strangulated diaphragmatic hernia presented as an emergency and was noted to have pulsus paradoxus. The mechanism of this physical sign, previously unrecorded in association with an intrathoracic hernia, is discussed.
متن کاملThe relative merits of pulsus paradoxus and right ventricular diastolic collapse in the early detection of cardiac tamponade: an experimental echocardiographic study.
An inspiratory decline in systolic arterial blood pressure exceeding 10 mm Hg has been used clinically to identify hemodynamically significant pericardial effusions. Recently, the echocardiographic sign of right ventricular diastolic collapse (RVDC) has been shown to occur early in the course of cardiac tamponade in association with a hemodynamically important decline in cardiac output. This st...
