Pulmonary hypertensive heart disease, whatever its cause, has a monotonous symptomatology that is dominated by the signs of heart failure. In cor pulmonale due to emphysema and its allied types, the clinical picture is varied, and oxygen deficiency with arterial desaturation is of central significance.
The relationship between lung and heart diseases has long been recognized, with necropsy studies demonstrating silent myocardial infarctions or coronary artery calcification in patients with advanced emphysema as the death cause.
30 wrz 2021 · Pulmonary hypertension and other cardiac complications occur frequently due to chronic hypoxia induced by interstitial lung diseases (ILD) or due to connective tissue disorder itself. Two-dimensional (2D) echocardiography is ideal for identifying abnormalities at a given time.
14 sie 2017 · Pulmonary diseases frequently coexist in heart failure (HF), thus posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges to cardiologists evaluating patients with overlapping symptoms and implementing recommended HF treatments.
18 gru 2007 · The present review highlights the complex relationship between pulmonary and cardiac disease. The presence of cardiac disease in patients with chronic lung disease portends a poor prognosis. PH and cor pulmonale are perhaps the best described cardiac consequences of lung disease, and treatment should be directed at the underlying disorder.
In this study, we have reviewed the current literature on halitosis regarding its prevalence, classification, risk factors, sources, measurement and treatment. Keywords: Bad breath; halitosis; oral malodour.
In this review, we discuss heart failure (HF) related changes in lung mechanics, gas exchange and ventilatory control as well as their impact on the limitation of exercise capacity, sleep disordered breathing and prognosis of HF patients.
