[1] [2] When said person bends forward, it causes a further increase in ventricular filling pressures that causes dyspnea, especially in patients with lower cardiac indices. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The term "bendopnea" (meaning "bent" and "breath") was coined to be easily identifiable among patients and physicians.
Many different conditions can lead to the feeling of dyspnea (shortness of breath). DiagnosisPro, an online medical expert system, listed 497 in October 2010. [1] The most common cardiovascular causes are acute myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure while common pulmonary causes include: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, pneumothorax, and pneumonia.
Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea is a common symptom of several heart conditions such as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, in addition to asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and sleep apnea.
