Echocardiographic assessment of patient hemodynamics in heart failure.
Fortuni F, Morroni S, Biagioli P, Myagmardorj R, Viti C, Sforna S, Moscatelli S, Wu HW, Ambrosio G, Bax JJ, Ajmone Marsan N, Carluccio E
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome which is due to cardiac structural and/or functional abnormalities that result in elevated intra-cardiac pressures and/or inadequate cardiac output. Hemodynamic assessment in HF allows the identification and characterization of cardiac dysfunction, systemic and/or pulmonary congestion and the eventual impairment of systemic perfusion which are fundamental to phenotype HF, risk stratify HF patients and to guide their treatment. Patient hemodynamics can be...
