2. Pacemaker syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_syndrome

   Diet alone cannot treat pacemaker syndrome, but an appropriate diet to the patient, in addition to the other treatment regimens mentioned, can improve the patient's symptoms. [citation needed] Several cases mentioned below: For patients with heart failure, low-salt diet is indicated. [15]

3. Alcoholic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcoholic_cardiomyopathy

   The diagnosis of alcoholic cardiomyopathy is typically made based on a combination of the patient's medical history, physical examination, and diagnostic tests. [8] Firstly, the doctor will ask the patient about their alcohol consumption habits, as well as any symptoms they may have experienced, such as shortness of breath or swelling in the ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_failure_with...

   Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a form of heart failure in which the ejection fraction – the percentage of the volume of blood ejected from the left ventricle with each heartbeat divided by the volume of blood when the left ventricle is maximally filled – is normal, defined as greater than 50%; [1] this may be measured by echocardiography or cardiac catheterization.

5. Atrial flutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_flutter

   Although this abnormal heart rhythm typically occurs in individuals with cardiovascular disease (e.g., high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, and cardiomyopathy) and diabetes mellitus, it may occur spontaneously in people with otherwise normal hearts. It is typically not a stable rhythm and often degenerates into atrial fibrillation (AF ...

7. Atrial fibrillation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_fibrillation

   Fatty infiltration helps explain why obesity is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation in one fifth of patients. [63] Atrial fibrillation increases the risk of heart failure by 11 per 1000, kidney problems by 6 per 1000, death by 4 per 1000, stroke by 3 per 1000, and coronary heart disease by 1 per 1000. [162]

8. Cardiac contractility modulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_contractility...

   A pioneering study had shown that an improved cardiac contractility modulation algorithm could make the therapy an effective treatment for patients with persistent atrial fibrillation. [35] Following these study results the new generation was developed and can now offer cardiac contractility modulation therapy also for patients with atrial ...

9. Pacemaker failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_failure

   These factors can contribute to an increased rate of complications which can lead to pacemaker failure. [ 2 ] Approximately 2.25 million pacemakers were implanted in the United States between 1990 and 2002, and of those pacemakers, about 8,834 were removed from patients because of device malfunction most commonly connected to generator ...
