2. Heart failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_failure

   Heart failure with recovered ejection fraction (HFrecovEF or HFrecEF): patients previously with HFrEF with complete normalization of left ventricular ejection (≥50%). [64] [65] Heart failure may also be classified as acute or chronic. Chronic heart failure is a long-term condition, usually kept stable by the treatment of symptoms.

3. Diastolic function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diastolic_function

   Parallel to "diastolic function", the term "systolic function" is usually referenced in terms of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), which is the ratio of stroke volume and end-diastolic volume. [2] Due to the epidemic of heart failure, [3] particularly the cases determined as diastolic heart failure, it is increasingly urgent and ...

4. Diabetic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetic_cardiomyopathy

   Defects in cellular processes such as autophagy and mitophagy are thought to contribute to the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. [2] Diabetic cardiomyopathy is characterized functionally by ventricular dilation, enlargement of heart cells, prominent interstitial fibrosis and decreased or preserved systolic function [5] in the presence of a diastolic dysfunction.

5. E/A ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E/A_ratio

   Heart rate and rhythm - loss of a normal atrial rhythm (e.g., atrial fibrillation causes loss of the A wave). The height of the E wave becomes dependent on the length of the cardiac cycle (variable) rather than a measure of diastolic function. Similarly, pacing and tachycardia result in alterations, whereas bradycardia increases the E/A ratio.

   “However, we know that even small chronic increases in blood pressure increase one’s risk for stroke, heart attack, heart failure, and kidney disease.” Keeping tabs on your blood pressure ...

7. High-output heart failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-output_heart_failure

   High-output heart failure is a heart condition that occurs when the cardiac output is higher than normal because of increased peripheral demand. There is a circulatory overload which may lead to pulmonary edema secondary to an elevated diastolic pressure in the left ventricle .
