Abstract (sommario):
Hospital administrators strive to reduce readmission and over use of the acute care setting for chronic health conditions. Historically hospitals have focused on readmission prevention strategies to improve the transition of patients from the hospital to the community and although the causes of a hospital readmission may span multiple providers along the continuum of care, the hospital is currently the only provider being penalized. The project facility implemented a readmission reduction strategy, Re-Engineered Discharge (Project RED), as a means to reduce readmissions and yet continued to ha

Abstract (sommario):
The aim of this thesis was to explore the relationship between diabetes and heart failure, particularly focusing on epidemiology, aetiology and treatment. I was granted access to a number of databases that included patients with both diabetes and heart failure. Chapter one is a systematic review of the literature and each subsequent chapter describes an analysis of the individual patient cohorts. Chapters two to five examine the association of diabetes with both short and long-term outcomes in populations with different types of heart failure: out-patients with chronic heart failure; acute hea

Abstract (sommario):
Many patients who present with symptoms of heart failure are found to have a normal left ventricular ejection fraction and therefore were labelled as having “diastolic heart failure” implying that the underlying pathophysiology is due to diastolic dysfunction alone. However, using a combination of echocardiographical techniques, a variety of abnormalities were found including reduced longitudinal function, impaired left ventricular twist and torsional dyssynchrony in systole leading to reduced and delayed untwisting, impaired suction and reduced early diastolic left ventricular filling not ful

Abstract (sommario):
Chronic heart failure (HF) is a condition that affects more than 900,000 people in the UK. Mortality rates associated with the condition are high, with nearly 20% of patients dying within one year of diagnosis. Continuous monitoring and risk stratification can help identify patients at risk of deterioration and may consequently improve patients' likelihood of survival. Current repeated-measure risk stratification techniques for HF patients often rely on subjective perception of symptoms, such as breathlessness, and markers of fluid retention in the body (e.g. weight).

Abstract (sommario):
Introduction: Monocytes play important roles in inflammation, thrombosis, angiogenesis and tissue repair and may contribute to the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF). Functional diversity is likely to stem from the presence of three distinct monocyte subsets, defined by flow cytometry (FC) as CD14++CD16-CCR2+ (Mon1), CD14++CD16+CCR2+ (Mon2) and CD14+CD16++CCR2- (Mon3). The aims of this thesis were to study the following parameters in patients with ischaemic HF: 1) monocyte subset numbers, 2) monocyte subset expression of surface receptors for inflammation, angiogenesis, cell adhesion molecu

This study investigated the role of prouroguanylin (ProUGN) and proguanylin (ProGN), members of a novel class of peptides with natriuretic activity in heart failure (HF), a disorder of declining cardiac output associated with disturbed sodium and water homeostasis. The hypothesis was that ProUGN and ProGN activity is dysregulated in chronic and acute HF. Plasma ProUGN and ProGN were measured in 243 patients with chronic stable HF and plasma ProUGN and cGMP, an intracellular mediator of ProUGN activity, measured in 336 patients admitted to hospital with acute HF using immunoassays.

Abstract (sommario):
The clinical syndrome of heart failure is one of the leading causes of hospitalisation and mortality in older adults. Due to ageing of the general population and improved survival from cardiac disease the prevalence of heart failure is rising. Despite the fact that the majority of patients with heart failure are aged over 65 years old, many with multiple co-morbidities, the association between cognitive impairment and heart failure has received relatively little research interest compared to other aspects of cardiac disease.

Heart failure (HF) is a major health concern affecting 15 million people in Europe and around 900 000 people in the U.K. HF predominantly affects the elderly, with the mean age of patients with a diagnosis of HF between 70 and 80 years. Most previous HF studies have accordingly focused on older patients. Although HF is less common in younger adults (< 65 years), 15% to 20% of patients hospitalised with HF are younger than 60 years of age. Very few studies have described the characteristics of younger adults with HF and its outcome. The aims of this thesis are to describe the clinical character

Abstract (sommario):
Heart failure is the end-stage of heart diseases. In this state the heart is unable to pump an adequate amount of blood to meet the metabolic requirement of the peripheral tissues. Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome that can result from any heart disease. Clinically, it is manifested by cardiomegaly, breathlessness, and fluid retention. In spite of advances in pharmacological treatment, it remains a highly disabling and lethal disorder. Until now, the mechanism underlying this syndrome remains obscure.

Abstract (sommario):
Sudden death and pump failure death are two major modes of death in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HF-REF) and in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HF-PEF). There have been advances in evidence-based treatments in patients with HF-REF over the last two decades, along with the changing patient characteristics in both HF-REF and HF-PEF populations. It is of great interest and significance to discover if these changes have translated into temporal changes (and corresponding trends over time) in the risks of sudden death and pump failure death

Heart failure is a common and serious chronic condition, which can be as ‘malignant’ as most forms of cancer (Stewart, MacIntyre, Hole, Capewell, & McMurray, 2001). Recent estimates are that around 40,000 men and 45,000 women are living with heart failure in Scotland (Stewart, MacIntyre, Capewell, & McMurray, 2003). Heart failure is significantly influenced by socioeconomic factors, with people on lower incomes being more likely to develop, and die faster from, heart failure (McAlister et al, 2004).

Abstract (sommario):
Treatments aimed at modifying cardiac substrate utilisation are designed to improve metabolic efficiency. In the fasting state, the heart mainly relies on fatty acid oxidation for its energy production. The heart can adapt to metabolise glucose, lactate and amino acids depending on the predominate milieu and demands placed upon it. A shift from fatty acid oxidation to carbohydrate oxidation leads to a lower oxygen consumption per unit of adenosine triphosphate produced. It is this concept of improving cardiac efficiency by a reduction in oxygen demand that underpins the use of metabolic manipu
