[Left ventricular function in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy]. 1993

G V Ianovskiĭ, and N P Stroganova, and D V Riabenko

Functional state of left ventricle was studied in 43 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. All the patients showed pronouncedly reduced total ejection, stroke volume and cardiac index, increased final diastolic and final systolic volumes, decreased ejection rate indices. Analysis of regional contractility of left ventricle allowed to detect significant fall of ejection fraction in 96.3% of segments. Diastolic dysfunction was characterized by disorders of isovolumetric relaxation, changes in hemodynamical structure and contribution of atrial systole to ventricular filling, decrease of volumetric compliance of left ventricle. The data obtained give a reason to consider that appropriate therapy of dilated cardiomyopathy should be carried out with taking into account both systolic and diastolic left ventricle dysfunction.

D002908	Chronic Disease	Diseases which have one or more of the following characteristics: they are permanent, leave residual disability, are caused by nonreversible pathological alteration, require special training of the patient for rehabilitation, or may be expected to require a long period of supervision, observation, or care (Dictionary of Health Services Management, 2d ed). For epidemiological studies chronic disease often includes HEART DISEASES; STROKE; CANCER; and diabetes (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 2).

D015637	Gated Blood-Pool Imaging	Radionuclide ventriculography where scintigraphic data is acquired during repeated cardiac cycles at specific times in the cycle, using an electrocardiographic synchronizer or gating device. Analysis of right ventricular function is difficult with this technique; that is best evaluated by first-pass ventriculography (VENTRICULOGRAPHY, FIRST-PASS).
