Patients with heart failure and a normal ejection fraction
The pathophysiological cause of elevated diastolic pressures and heart failure in patients with normal ejection fraction is abnormal diastolic function.
Abstract
Patients with heart failure and a normal ejection fraction have significant abnormalities in active relaxation and passive stiffness. In these patients, the pathophysiological cause of elevated diastolic pressures and heart failure is abnormal diastolic function.
