Systolic and Diastolic Heart Failure (Boards and Beyond) (High output…
Systolic and Diastolic Heart Failure (Boards and Beyond)
Systolic and Diastolic EF will be different but have same symptoms
Systolic HF
Concentric Hypertrophy
Decreased compliance( stiff ventricles)
Myocytes become thicker, not longer
sarcomeres added in parallel
response to pressure overload in ventricle
seen in
Aortic stenosis
HTN
Often seen in diastolic HF
Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Eccentric Hypertrophy leading to dilation
myocytes are growing in size: longer
sarcomeres are being added in series
walls arent thicker
Volume overload
Chronic retention of fluid in cavity
systolic HF( red EF) w/ LV cavity dilation
Exception: Systolic patients have Low flow Symptoms
Seen only in end stage HF
Confusion
Cachexia
Cool extremities
Primary problem: Fall in Contractility
decreased in CO (in dia too)
LV contractility issue, can't get blood out
Contractility shifts ESPVR (end sys pressure vol relationship) line. Shifts Right.
smaller SV
Higher afterload (high ESV)
Also rise in EDV
EDV related to ESV (which is elevated)
Slight increase in End dia pressure
Changes in Frank Starling Curve
R shift in falling contractility
any given preload, lower contractility
Common Cause:
MI
CAD
myocytes replaced by scar
ischemic cardiomyopathy
reduced LVEF
Non-common
50% idiopathic
nonischemic
Viral
follow URI
virus enters myocytes » myocarditis »cardiomyopathy
often myocarditis is asymptomatic until systolic HF
Cocksackie
flu
adenovirus
Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
late in preg. 3rd tri or early postpartum
unknown etiology
Women advised to avoid future pregnancy
Chemotherapy
anthracyclines
Antitumor antibiotics
Doxyrubicin
Daunorubicin
Gene mutations
sarcomere proteins
ßmyosin heavy chain
a myosin heavy chain
Troponin
AutoDom, some AR XLR
tachycardia mediated Cardiomyopathy
constant rapid HR over weeks months
leads to depression of LV systolic Fn
reversible by treating arrhythmia and slowing HR
Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy, Apical balooning
Stress induced cardiomyopathy
emotional stress: catecholamine stunning
Leads to depressed LVEF
Increased CK, MB, Troponin
EKG changes
Appears IDENTICAL TO ANTERIOR MI
however no coronary disease on angiogram
Resolve in 4-6 weeks
what?
Base of heart remains contractile,
apex does not
common in Japan: octopus trap
Alcohol
alcoholic cardiomyopathy
toxic metabolites damage heart
recovers w/ cessation
Diastolic HF
Primary problem: Fall in LV compliance
falling Lusitrophy (more stiffness)
decreased CO
stiffness causes blood to not come in as much
LV end diastolic Pressure shifted left (raises)
major difference (stiffness)
leads to signs and symptoms of HF
small decrease in SV
notice difference btw Systolic HF
Cause:
unknown
concomitant w/ concentric Hypertrophy
Associations
diabetes
Age
HTN
Other terms
heart failure w/ preserved EF
Diastolic Dysfunction
High output Heart Failure
Overdrive
severe anemia
blood is thin
severe Thyroid disease
Tyamine (B1) deficiency/ beriberi
AV fistulas
pumping blood directly into a venous system
Unclear mechanism
maybe decreased LV filling time
HIGH CO
Heart Failure Symptoms anyways
increased JVP, Pulmonary edema
