Core Tip |
Three million people in United States have heart failure with normal left ventricular systolic function but abnormal diastolic function due to increased myocardial stiffness. These patients are often elderly women with hypertension, ischemic heart disease, atrial fibrillation, obesity, diabetes mellitus, renal disease, or obstructive lung disease. The annual mortality rate of these patients is 8%-12% per year. The diagnosis is based on history, physical examination, laboratory data, echocardiography, and, when necessary, by cardiac catheterization. These patients often require weight reduction, an exercise program, aggressive control of blood pressure and heart rate, and diuretics. If significant coronary heart disease is present, coronary revascularization should be considered. |
