Researchers in China report that a simple heart ultrasound measure of left ventricular underfilling is a valuable prognostic ...

It is a common perception that approximately 50% of heart failure (HF) patients present with a normal or near-normal left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction ("HF with preserved systolic function"), ...

This Journal feature begins with a case vignette highlighting a common clinical problem. Evidence supporting various strategies is then presented, followed by a review of formal guidelines, when they ...

Heart failure occurs when the heart can't pump blood as well as it should. It can affect either the left side of the heart (left-sided heart failure) or the right side (right-sided heart failure).

BioVentrix has collected $48.5 million in venture capital funding to help carry its treatment for ischemic heart failure to an FDA review. The former Fierce Medtech Fierce 15 winner’s minimally ...

Adults with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who took a "polypill" combining medications prescribed for the treatment of heart failure, had improved heart function and symptoms, ...

In a Liv Hospital study, stem cell therapy improved heart function dramatically using MSCs and EVs, despite a blocked graft.

A ventricular resection is a type of surgery that removes scar tissue or a tumor from a heart chamber to restore function. Often, a reconstruction or repair procedure follows this. The heart has four ...

"This study showed that RV function, including RV strain, decreases over time despite preserved LV ejection fraction, and is associated with poor cardiovascular outcomes. RV function may be more ...
