congestive heart and lung failure :: Article Creator Sign In Your Feet Could Indicate Heart Failure - What To Look Out For 13:58, 25 Mar 2025Updated 15:06, 25 Mar 2025 Heart failure, a type of cardiovascular disease that happens when the heart can't pump blood around the body due to it becoming too stiff or weak, is believed to affect over a million people in the UK. Each year sees about 200,000 new diagnoses. The British Heart Foundation reveals that nearly 40 percent of those living with the condition have early stages of heart failure that could've been detected before they fell seriously ill. While chest pain and shortness of breath are common symptoms associated with heart issues, there are less obvious signs that can appear in unexpected places, such as your feet. ‌ READ MORE: Hoover's 'lightest' cordless vacuum 'more effective' than Dyson is £130 off in Spring Sale Swollen feet could be a...

hypercapnia pulmonary hypertension :: Article Creator Pulmonary Hypertension Subtypes Show Distinct PA Flow Hemodynamics Investigators used 4D flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging to search for differences between pulmonary artery (PA) remodeling in pulmonary arterial hypertension and other types of pulmonary hypertension. Advanced imaging technology can help clinicians better understand pulmonary artery (PA) remodeling and its relation to different types of pulmonary hypertension (PH), according to a new report. The study was published in the journal Pulmonary Circulation.1 The analysis found that patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) had distinct PA flow characteristics compared with those with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and pulmonary hypertension (PH-HFpEF). These findings suggest the PA remodeling process differs by PH etiology, the authors explained. Patients with PAH had distinct PA flow ...

For adults patients with repaired congenital heart disease who are also living with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), medications approved to treat PAH may be as beneficial at reducing morbidity and mortality as they are among the patients who do not have congenital heart disease. Data demonstrating these clinical treatment conclusions were published in JACC: Advances following a pooled analysis of data from 3 randomized, placebo-controlled studies that investigated what are now currently approved PAH treatments: GRIPHON (NCT01106014), which evaluated selexipag...

low output heart failure :: Article Creator Chronic Heart Failure - Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Topic Review Introduction Chronic heart failure occurs when either the left ventricle, the right ventricle, or both require elevated filling pressures to maintain cardiac output. Heart failure is a syndrome, not a specific disease, and occurs as a final common pathway in multiple disease states. Heart failure (HF) can be due to the following: Systolic dysfunction with reduced ejection fraction - HFrEF Diastolic dysfunction abnormal relaxation or impaired filling with preserved ejection fraction - HFpEF Valvular heart disease Pulmonary hypertension with right HF Arrhythmia High output HF (ie, severe anemia, arteriovenous malformations) The section presents a review of diastolic congestive heart failure, commonly called HFpEF. Reviews of systolic congestive HF, or HFrE...
