3 mar 2021 · Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome caused by structural and/or functional cardiac abnormalities, resulting in a reduced cardiac output and/or elevated intracardiac filling pressures at rest or during stress.
Pathophysiology. Prognosis. Mortality. Hospitalization. Rehospitalization. Key points. Introduction. Heart failure (HF) is the quintessential cardiovascular syndrome of aging that results from age-related cardiovascular conditions and age-associated changes in cardiovascular structure and function.
1 sty 2010 · This new tool demonstrates powerful predictive capabilities for 30-day mortality in elderly patients, especially for men, hospitalized for HF, in comparison with more traditional prognostic tools such as the New York Heart Association class, or indices derived from ADHERE 2 or the EFFECT measure. 3
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a clinical syndrome associated with systolic or diastolic ventricular dysfunction resulting from various cardiovascular diseases. Although morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease have decreased in recent decades, the prevalence of CHF is increasing.
17 sty 2017 · Heart failure (HF) is common, causes significant morbidity and mortality, and predominantly affects the elderly. 1 The clinical syndrome of HF is characterized by symptoms of dyspnea and excise intolerance and signs of pulmonary and systemic venous congestion caused by impairments in the filling or ejection of blood from the left ventricle (LV)....
1 wrz 2023 · The many factors that can be used to predict survival in HFrEF and the prognosis in patients with asymptomatic left ventricular (LV) systolic or HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are discussed separately.
Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome characterised by symptoms of dyspnoea, orthopnoea and fatigue, with associated physical signs of an elevated jugular venous pressure, pulmonary crackles and peripheral oedema. 1 It occurs as a result of either structural or functional abnormalities that lead to reduced ejection of blood from the left ...
