Overview What is HFpEF? Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a clinical syndrome in which patients have signs and symptoms of HF as the result of high left ventricular (LV) filling pressure, despite normal or near-normal LV ejection fraction (EF). Most patients with HFpEF also display normal LV volumes and an abnormal diastolic filling pattern (i.e, diastolic ...
Thousands of patients suffering from deep vein thrombosis (DVT) are set to benefit from a lifesaving procedure using a new blood clot grabbing device pioneered by NHS specialists. The treatment involves inserting a stent, a tiny, ball- shaped wire cage into a blocked vein. Once in position, the collapsible cage is expanded and ‘ catches’ the clot. When the device is pulled out, the ...
Health research is very important for improving health care for all.
