Heart failure with systolic dysfunction complicating acute myocardial infarction-differential outcomes but similar eplerenone efficacy by ST-segment or non-ST-segment elevation: A post hoc substudy of the EPHESU
FFS = fee-for-service; LVEF = left ventricular ejection fraction; LVSF = left ventricular systolic function; NHF = National Heart Failure Project. When compared with subjects having documentation of LVSF, those without documentation (n = 14,104) were older, more often women, had a lower ...

Heart failure may occur as the result of a low EF (called systolic heart failure), or from another cause, such as a valve disorder or from diastolic dysfunction. People with diastolic dysfunction can have a normal EF. ●Electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG). ECG records the electrical impulses ...
Nationally, symptomatic heart failure affects 1.5-2% of Canadians, incurs $3 billion in hospital costs annually and the global burden is expected to double in the next 1–2 decades. The current one-year mortality rate after diagnosis of heart failure rem

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (DD), a common finding in the general population, is considered to be associated with heart failure with preserved ejection faction (HFpEF). Here we evaluate the prevalence and correlates of DD in subjects with and without HFpEF in a middle-aged sample of ...
Pathophysiology: purely a diastolic cardiac disease or global systolic and diastolic dysfunction interplaying with multiple other altered mechanisms? Comorbidities: simple risk factors or effective aetiologies? Treatment: is it possible to find an effective therapy for HFpEF? Conclusions Sources of funding...
