Antecedent hypertension and heart failure after myocardial infarction

Abstract

We sought to assess the relationship of antecedent hypertension to neurohormones, ventricular remodeling and clinical heart failure (HF) after myocardial infarction (MI). Heart failure is a probable contributor to the increased mortality observed after MI in those with antecedent hypertension. Hence, neurohormonal activation, adverse ventricular remodeling and a higher incidence of clinical HF may be expected in this group. However, no previous report has documented serial postinfarction neurohumoral status, serial left ventricular imaging and clinical outcomes over prolonged follow-up in a broad spectrum of patients with and without antecedent hypertension. Inpatient events were documented in 1,093 consecutive patients (436 hypertensive and 657 normotensive) with acute MI. In 68% (282 hypertensive, 465 normotensive) serial neurohormonal sampling and radionuclide ventriculography were performed one to four days and three to five months after infarction. Clinical outcomes were recorded over a mean follow-up of two years. Plasma neurohormones were significantly higher in hypertensives than in normotensives one to four days and three to five months after infarction. From similar initial values, left ventricular volumes increased s...Continue Reading

Cardiac Remodeling

Cardiac remodeling in response to a myocardial infarction is characterized by progressive ventricular dilatation, cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, and deterioration of cardiac performance. Discover the latest research on Cardiac Remodeling here.

Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is a congenital cardiomyopathy that is characterized by infiltration of adipose and fibrous tissue into the right ventricle wall and loss of myocardial cells. Primary injuries usually are at the free wall of the right ventricular and right atria resulting in ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias.
