Structural and functional changes of the heart in chronic heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction with excess body weight depending on the presence and form of atrial fibrillation
Abstract:The aim. To examine the features of structural and functional changes of the heart in patients with chronic heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (CHF pr EF) with excess body weight depending on the presence and form of atrial fibrillation (AF).
Materials and methods. The study involved 248 patients with CHF pr EF and excess body weight, the mean age was 65.0 ± 11.0 years, 146 females (58.9 %) and 102 males (41.1 %). The first group included 181 patients without concomitant AF, the me… Show more
