概括
心脏衰竭与保存的喷射分数 (HFpEF) 影响年轻的成年人,通常是由肥胖引起的. 尽管HFpEF患者比老年患者的生活质量更好,但与没有心力衰竭的患者相比,年轻人面临的结果明显较差.
科学领域:
- 心脏病学
- 老年学
- 公共卫生
背景情况:
- 在老年人中,通常会出现心力衰竭与保留射出分数 (HFpEF).
- 在年轻人群体中,HFpEF的特征和结果仍未得到充分研究.
- 这项研究研究了65岁以下的个体的HFpEF.
研究的目的:
- 在年轻患者群体中描述HFpEF.
- 在不同年龄段的HFpEF患者中比较临床和心声学特征,生活质量和结果.
- 将非常年轻的HFpEF患者与年龄和性别匹配的对照患者进行比较.
主要方法:
- 来自亚洲11个地区的1203名HFpEF患者 (排泄分数≥50%) 的预期招募.
- 分类为年龄组:非常年轻 (<55岁),年轻 (55-64岁),年长 (65-74岁) 和老年人 (≥75岁).
- 临床数据,心声学,生活质量和1年结果的比较;非常年轻的HFpEF与对照者的比较.
主要成果:
- 37% 的HFpEF患者年龄在65岁以下;这一群体中男性占优势,肥胖率较高 (36% 与16%),功能低下,心房动和高血压较少.
- 在非常年轻和老年HFpEF患者中,左心室填充压力和高的患病率相似.
- 非常年轻的HFpEF患者比老年HFpEF患者有更好的生活质量和更低的1年死亡/住院率 (7%),但死亡率比对照患者高3倍.
结论:
- 年轻的HFpEF患者表现出与老年患者相似的不良心脏重塑.
- 与没有心力衰竭的对照组相比,年轻人的HFpEF结果明显较差.
- 在年轻人中,肥胖被认为是HFpEF的主要潜在因素.

Heart Failure II: Pathophysiology
920
Systolic Heart Failure and Compensatory MechanismsSystolic heart failure (also termed HFrEF, Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction) is the most prevalent type of heart filure. It results in a decreased volume of blood being pumped from the ventricle. The aortic arch and carotid sinuses have baroreceptors that detect reduced blood pressure, triggering the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) to release epinephrine and norepinephrine. Initially, this response aims to boost heart rate and...

Pathophysiology of Heart Failure
3.6K
Heart failure (HF) is a progressive syndrome involving ventricles that leads to inadequate cardiac output. It can be classified based on location and output or ejection fraction. Ejection fraction (EF) is an essential measurement in the diagnosis and surveillance of HF. Reduced EF corresponds to systolic heart failure (HFrEF). However, HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is becoming increasingly prevalent. Also known as diastolic HF, this form of HF is related to aging. The...

Heart Failure I: Introduction
882
Heart failure refers to a clinical syndrome caused by structural or functional cardiac disorders that prevent the heart from pumping an adequate amount of blood to meet the body's metabolic needs. This condition often arises from myocardial infarction or ischemia, leading to decreased cardiac output, reduced tissue perfusion, impaired gas exchange, fluid volume imbalance, and decreased functional ability.Heart failure can result from disruptions in the mechanisms that regulate cardiac output...

Additional therapies for treating patients with heart failure (HF) may include procedural interventions, supplemental oxygen, the management of sleep disorders, and nutritional therapy.Procedural InterventionsImplantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator: For patients at risk of life-threatening arrhythmias due to severe left ventricular dysfunction, an Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) can detect and terminate these arrhythmias, preventing sudden cardiac death and improving survival rates.

Heart Failure Drugs: Diuretics

Heart failure and kidney perfusion are interconnected in a complex way. Reduced renal perfusion and venous congestion are two significant factors that contribute to renal dysfunction in heart failure. The kidneys, primarily responsible for fluid balance in the body, are adversely affected due to compromised cardiac output and increased venous pressure. In response to reduced renal perfusion, the kidneys activate neurohumoral mechanisms to restore balance. However, these mechanisms can be...
