No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This proposed study aim to:

1. Determine intra-LV pressure-time profile non-invasively using recently developed echo Doppler VFM analysis and applanation tonometry and myocardial elastic properties, in HF subjects (both HFNEF and HFREF) compared to normal volunteers.
2. Correlate calculated intra-LV pressure parameters with NT ProBNP levels.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

NTproBNP

To assess its level in the blood, as a marker of heart failure presence and severity.

OTHER

Echocardiography

To measure heart chamber size, heart function, blood vessel size and blood vessel function. These measurements will help us understand the type and severity of heart failure.

OTHER

Arterial tonometry

A noninvasive method to obtain arterial pressure waveform.
