Hyperthyroidism imposes a severe strain on the cardiovascular system, which expresses itself in the clinical feature referred as thyroid cardiac disease. This is diagnosed when atrial fibrillation and congestive cardiac failure are present in a hyperthyroid patient. The cardiovascular manifestations range from sinus tachycardia to atrial fibrillation and from a high cardiac output state to cong...
The clinical utility of plasma natriuretic peptide concentrations in dogs with right-sided congestive heart failure (CHF) remains unclear. We investigated whether plasma levels of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are useful for assessing the congestive signs of right-sided heart failure in dogs. This retrospective study enrolled 16 healt...
Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation (VGAM) is a rare congenital malformation, accounting for less than 1% of cerebrovascular abnormalities. The majority of reported cases have been associated with congestive heart failure (CHF) in the neonatal period. Herein, we present a case of VGAM, diagnosed at 37 weeks of gestation during the intrauterine life Case report: A full-term female newborn pre...
Given an increasing number of patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) refractory to diuretics, new and more effective therapeutic modalities are sought. Peritoneal dialysis (PD), which provides continuous, slow ultrafiltration, may be an alternative to hemodialysis in this population. The current paper, based on a comprehensive literature review, addresses the role of PD in improving the q...
The prevalence, prognosis, clinical presentation, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of the central sleep apnoea syndrome (CSAS) are reviewed and its relationship with congestive heart failure (CHF) is discussed. Adequately powered trials are needed with survival and health status as end points to establish whether correction of sleep related breathing abnormalities improves the outcome ...
Heart failure is a growing epidemic with an estimated 5 million Americans suffering from this condition. Several clinical trials have demonstrated a high correlation between congestive heart failure (CHF) and cognitive impairment. The severity of cognitive impairment correlates positively with the degree of CHF. The underlying mechanism for cognitive impairment remains unclear but appears to be...
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a common clinical disorder that results in pulmonary vascular congestion and reduced cardiac output. CHF should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any adult patient who presents with dyspnea and/or respiratory failure. The diagnosis of heart failure is often determined by a careful history and physical examination and characteristic chest-radiograph...
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the usefulness of echocardiography in managing patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) and identify risks of mortality and heart failure re-admissions during follow up. DESIGN A descriptive prospective hospital based study. SETTING Muhimbili National Hospital and Hindul Mandal Hospital in Dares Salaam, Tanzania. SUBJECTS 360 patients (198 male and 162 female) a...
OBJECTIVES This study examines B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in patients with systolic versus non-systolic dysfunction presenting with shortness of breath. BACKGROUND Preserved systolic function is increasingly common in patients presenting with symptoms of congestive heart failure (CHF) but is still difficult to diagnose. METHODS The Breathing Not Properly Multinational Study was...
