Medically reviewed by Jeffrey S. Lander, MD Key Takeaways Diastolic dysfunction occurs when the heart's ventricles stiffen ...
Epidemiological and experimental studies have documented both the rising burden of diastolic heart failure (DHF) and several mechanisms that distinguish this disease from systolic heart failure (SHF).
PHILADELPHIA — Omecamtiv mecarbil, a selective cardiac myosin activator, improved diastolic function and pulmonary pressures without worsening diastolic filling in patients with chronic HF and reduced ...

June 13, 2011 (Montreal, Quebec City) — Among patients with heart failure and very low LV ejection fraction, having better diastolic function--an E/e' ratio lower than 10.8--predicted preserved ...
Patients with signs and symptoms of heart failure and a normal left ventricular ejection fraction are said to have diastolic heart failure. It has traditionally been thought that the ...
