To evaluate the alteration of cardiac function in hypertensive patients with different left ventricular geometric patterns. Echocardiography was used to study left ventricular geometry and cardiac diastolic function in 117 cases of essential hypertension, with 45 normal cases as controls. Echocardiographic date were used to calculated the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and relative wall thickness (RWT), which values in turn were used to divide the subjects into four groups. The left atrial dimension of the group, with the exception of these hypertensives who showed normal geometry, was larger than that of the control group. The damage of peak of E velocity, peak of A velocity, E/A and the slope between the E and F points (E to F slope) were greater than in hypertension than in the control group. The concentric hypertrophy group and eccentric hypertrophy group suffered more serious damage of left ventricular diastolic function than the concentric remodeling group, and damage of left ventricular diastolic function in the concentric remodeling group was greater than that in the normal geometry group. The degree of cardiac diastolic function damage differed among patients with different left ventricular geometric patterns, when the cardiac structure was changed, the degree of cardiac diastolic function damage increased.

D016277 Ventricular Function, Left The hemodynamic and electrophysiological action of the left HEART VENTRICLE. Its measurement is an important aspect of the clinical evaluation of patients with heart disease to determine the effects of the disease on cardiac performance. Left Ventricular Function,Function, Left Ventricular,Functions, Left Ventricular,Left Ventricular Functions,Ventricular Functions, Left
D018487 Ventricular Dysfunction, Left A condition in which the LEFT VENTRICLE of the heart was functionally impaired. This condition usually leads to HEART FAILURE; MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION; and other cardiovascular complications. Diagnosis is made by measuring the diminished ejection fraction and a depressed level of motility of the left ventricular wall.

D020257 Ventricular Remodeling The geometric and structural changes that the HEART VENTRICLES undergo, usually following MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION. It comprises expansion of the infarct and dilatation of the healthy ventricle segments. While most prevalent in the left ventricle, it can also occur in the right ventricle.
