Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) on the diastolic heart failure in hypertensive patients.Methods 104 hypertensive patients with diastolic heart failure were randomly divided into treatment group and control group,52 patients were given 36 hours of treatment EECP.After 6 months,Doppler ultrasound recordings were obtained from all patients to determine the left ventrlcular diastolic function.Resuits Left ventricular diastolic function index and the left ventrich mass weight index (LVMI) wero impmved after treatment in both groups(P＜0.01),and EECP treated group was better than control group(P＜0.05).Conduslon For hypertensive patients with diastolic heart failure,EECP could not only improve heart diastolic function,but also reverse reconstruction of the left ventricuhr.
