A combination of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and heart failure (HF) is common yet it is inadequately and rarely recognized. Because of the similar clinical manifestations, comorbidity is frequently not considered and appropriate diagnostic tests are not performed. It is very important...
Heart failure and COPD are very common in the elderly. As both syndromes share common risk factors, such as tobacco smoking, and pathophysiological pathways, including systemic inflammation and activation of the neurohumoral system, they frequently coincide. Because of the similar clinical presentation,...
The study will be developed in the provinces of Almer铆a, M谩laga and Granada in the Southern Spain, from patients included in the Andalusian Health Care Service database with the diagnosis of COPD or Heart Failure, with the collaboration of case manager nurses and general practitioners for ...
In COPD with FEV 1 above 50% p the HRs were 1.3 (95% CI 1.2 to 1.5) for coronary heart disease and 1.9 (95% CI 1.6 to 2.3) for heart failure. Asthma associated with increased risks of coronary heart disease and heart failure, however, in asthma without allergy the HR was 1.1 (95...
Patients with concurrent HF and COPD have worse prognosis. However, the impact of Right Heart Failure (RHF) on hospital mortality has not been explored. Objective: to evaluate the association between of right heart failure (RHF) and hospital mortality in COPD patients. Methods: An analytical ...
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and heart failure (CHF) are common conditions. The prevalence of COPD ranges from 20% to 30% in patients with CHF. The diagnosis of CHF can remain unsuspected in patients with COPD, because shortness of breath is attributed to COPD. Measurement of...
These abnormalities may be particularly deleterious to dyspnea and exercise tolerance in mechanically-limited patients, e.g. those with coexistent COPD. Methods Ventilatory, gas exchange and sensory responses to incremental exercise were contrasted in 68 heart failure-COPD patients (12 EOVAlcides...
Incidence of COPD are mainly the following main stages: (1) chronic bronchitis. (2) chronic bronchiolitis. (3), emphysema. (4) the right heart failure. 翻译结果4复制译文编辑译文朗读译文返回顶部 COPD mainly in the following phases: ( 1) Major onset chronic bronchitis. ( 2) chronic bronchioli...
Rationale: Heart failure (HF) is a common comorbidity in the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) population, but previous research has shown under recognition. Objectives: To determine the incidence of HF in a prevalent COPD cohort. To determine the association of incident HF with short-...
Clinical studies on heart failure with mildly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFmrEF) have gradually increased. However, studies on the prognostic differences between men and women among patients with HFmrEF are few, and no evidence on sex differences in such patients exists. Therefore, ...
