This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Takotsubo(stress) Cardiomyopathy (TCM)/ Broken Heart Syndrome? Takotsubo cardiomyopathy mimics acute coronary syndrome and is accompanied by reversible left ventricular apical ballooning in the absence of angiographically significant coronary artery stenosis. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, which is transient and typically precipitated by acute emotional stress, is also known as “stress cardiomyopathy” or “broken-heart syndrome.” Takotsubo cardiomyopathy has important implications because its clinical presentation mimics that of an acute coronary syndrome. Increased awareness of takotsubo cardiomyopathy will likely result in its being diagnosed more frequently. Herein, it is strived in this Booklet to describe the clinical presentation, pathophysiologic mechanisms, angiographic characteristics exhibited in this syndrome, history along with plenty of relevant IMAGES for better understanding and to review the existing literature and the reasons to conduct prospective studies needed to determine more accurately the incidence of takotsubo cardiomyopathy. …Dr. H.

Book excerpt: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acute and reversible abnormal condition of the heart also known as stress cardiomyopathy, apical ballooning syndrome, or broken heart syndrome. It is an uncommon disease that mostly occurs among Asians though studies have shown its occurrence in other parts of the world. The typical takotsubo syndrome patient has a unique circumferential left ventricular contraction abnormality that extends beyond a coronary artery supply territory and appears to follow the anatomical cardiac sympathetic innervation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a transient cardiac dysfunction characterised by a variety of ventricular wall-motion abnormalities. Alternative nomenclatures for this disorder include stress-induced cardiomyopathy, apical ballooning syndrome and 'broken heart syndrome'. TTS bears stark resemblance to an acute coronary syndrome, wherein patients present with acute chest pain and initial diagnostic workup correlates to abnormalities suggesting significant coronary stenosis. Interestingly, the distinguishing factor in TTS is the absence of an occlusive coronary vascular disease, which could correlate with these changes. The underlying pathophysiology explaining the evolution of TTS is still debatable; however, results from various recent studies and registers have shed more light on this obscure clinical entity. The detailed description of a criterion which demonstrably includes most patients with probable TTS has helped tune management strategies in ensuring necessary supportive care and early therapeutic interventions of complications, which could arise in course of the disease.

In broken heart syndrome, there is a transient disruption of your coronary heart's normal pumping characteristic, while the remainder of the heart features usually or with even extra forceful contractions. Broken heart syndrome may be because of the heart's response to a surge of stress hormones. The condition can also be referred to as takotsubo cardiomyopathy, apical ballooning syndrome or pressure cardiomyopathy by means of doctors. The signs of broken heart syndrome are treatable, and the situation commonly reverses itself in approximately per week. Signs Damaged heart syndrome signs and symptoms can mimic a heart attack. Common signs encompass: Chest pain Shortness of breath Any long-lasting or chronic chest ache may be a sign of a coronary heart assault, so it's crucial to take it critically and speak to 911 in case you enjoy chest pain
Download or read book Takotsubo Syndrome and Nitric Oxide Bioavailability written by Nikolaos Koumallos and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, also known as broken heart syndrome or stress cardiomyopathy, is a form of transient left ventricular dysfunction. Severe apical and mid left ventricular hypokinesis with hypercontractility of the basal segments is observed. Numerous underlying causes and pathophysiological mechanisms have been proposed including sudden sympathetic activation and increase in the circulating levels of catecholamines resulting in multivessel coronary spasm. Another possible mechanism related to catecholamine-mediated myocardial stunning is direct myocyte injury. Increasing data show that endothelial dysfunction and depleted nitric oxide bioavailability are common in patients with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. In this chapter we examine in depth the relation between endothelial dysfunction and Takotsubo syndrome.
