In order to assess the left ventricular (LV) longitudinal rotation (LR) in primary hypertension (PH) patients with a normal LV ejection fraction. Conventional echocardiography was performed in 61 ...

Participants exposed critical gaps in the diagnosis, treatment, and coordination of care for patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and charted a path forward.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a type of heart failure that affects the left side of the heart. It occurs when the lower left chamber of the heart, called the left ventricle ...

If you’ve been diagnosed with heart failure, your doctor has likely ordered a test of your heart's ejection fraction (EF). The EF is a measure of how efficiently your heart is pumping blood out to the ...

Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterised by systemic congestion and elevated left ...

Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) describes a type of heart failure in which the heart loses its ability to contract typically. Because of this, the heart cannot pump with enough ...

Nitrates are commonly prescribed to enhance activity tolerance in patients with heart failure and a preserved ejection fraction. We compared the effect of isosorbide mononitrate or placebo on daily ...

Sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure in patients with heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction, but their effects in patients with heart ...

"Medical Journeys" is a set of clinical resources reviewed by physicians, meant for the medical team as well as the patients they serve. Each episode of this 12-part journey through a disease state ...
