Even in the absence of pericardial disease, the pericardium exerts important biological effects on ventricular function, pressures, and volumes, particularly in patients with heart failure (HF). This review discusses the pathophysiologic impact of pericardial restraint in various forms of HF and then reviews how this restraint may be targeted ...
The pericardium exerts a compressive contact force on the surface of the heart that becomes exaggerated in various forms of heart failure where cardiac volumes increase. The resulting increase in pericardial restraint contributes importantly to determine ventricular function, the hemodynamic changes that occur in heart failure, and the ...
In the present review we discuss advances in cardiovascular imaging and emerging imaging tools as they apply to myocardial dysfunction. The New Framework for Application of Cardiac Imaging to Patients With Heart Failure. The expansion of cardiac imaging techniques allows detailed functional assessment and tissue characterization.

Fibrosis is a common pathological feature of many cardiac diseases that results in increased wall stiffness, cardiac remodeling, and heart failure (6). Importantly, myocardial fibrosis is a major prognostic factor of adverse cardiac events (7). There are 2 main types of myocardial fibrosis.
3 Νοε 2023 · If it is fast, like it is in case of aortic dissection or myocardial rupture, even 250 milliliters of fluid can impose a large and acute pressure on the heart and cause heart failure. This type of heart failure caused by acute effusion is called cardiac tamponade (heart compression).
1 Οκτ 2024 · Pericardial / epicardial adipose tissue can be treatment targets for the treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Heart failure is an important cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide.
