Congestive heart failure and atrial fibrillation (AF) are two important and growing problems in medicine and cardiology. Both conditions often coexist and complicate each other's management. Two therapeutic strategies are available for patients with AF and congestive heart failure: the first aims at restoring and maintaining sinus rhythm, whereas the second focuses exclusively on optimizing ven...

There is no uniformly accepted clinical definition for congestive heart failure (CHF), although criteria have been published by various groups. There is also no reference standard for CHF, although left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) gives a quantitative assessment of systolic function and is useful in predicting prognosis. To determine the relationship between LVEF and clinically diagnos...

introduction: the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of patients with congestive heart failure (chf) have been described by a number of previous studies, but very little information is available on this issue in iran. this study aimed to delineate the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of iranian patients hospitalized with chf. methods: during an observational, analytical, descrip...

the aim of this study is to show that the measures derived from electrocardiogram (ecg) signals many a time perform better than the same measures obtained from heart rate (hr) signals. a comparison was made to investigate how far the nonlinear symbolic dynamics approach helps to characterize the nonlinear properties of ecg signals and hr signals, and thereby discriminate between normal and cong...

failure (CHF) based on the results of Evidence-Based Practice Nursing (EBPN) research. The design used is using a case study. Case studies in this innovative are by applying research form providing leg elevation to reduce edema CHF patients with at Tarakan Hospital. Doing foot three times daily for two days can patients. From interventions carried out patients, data were obtained decreased edem...

ABSTRAKPenyakit jantung merupakan salah satu penyebab utama kematian di dunia. Salah penyakit yang perlu diperhatikan adalah congestive heart failure (CHF). CHF suatu kondisi mana tidak mampu memompa darah ke seluruh tubuh. Penyakit ini dapat didiagnosis dengan EKG. Oleh karena itu, pada penelitian dibuat sebuah sistem mengidentifikasi secara otomatis menggunakan metode convolutional neural net...

This study describes 3 dogs that experienced recurrent refractory CHF after receiving furosemide. Furosemide was then discontinued and torsemide initiated. Furosemide Versus Torsemide. A study of 7 dogs with clinically stable CHF demonstrated that replacement of furosemide with torsemide was both safe and . Torasemide is a new loop diuretic that combines the effects of furosemide and spironolac...
