2013 ESH/ESC Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension: The Task Force for the management of arterial hypertension of the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) and of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC).

2016 ESC Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic heart failure: The Task Force for the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic heart failure of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC). Developed with the special contribution of the Heart Failure Association (HFA) of the ESC.

The rapid technological developments of the past decade and the changes in echocardiographic practice brought about by these developments have resulted in the need for updated recommendations to the previously published guidelines for cardiac chamber quantification, which was the goal of the joint writing group assembled by the American Society of Echocardiography and the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging. This document provides updated normal values for all four cardiac chambers, including three-dimensional echocardiography and myocardial deformation, when possible, on the basis of considerably larger numbers of normal subjects, compiled from multiple databases. In addition, this document attempts to eliminate several minor discrepancies that existed between previously published guidelines.

Einfuhrung Die intraaortale Gegenpulsationstechnik wird seit über drei Jahrzehnten zur Verbesserung der Organperfusion bei hämodynamisch instabilen Patienten verwendet. Mit der externen Gegenpulsation (ECP) steht jetzt ein nicht-invasives Therapieprinzip zur Verfugung, das durch die EKG-getriggerte diastolische Kompression des Gefäßbettes der unteren Extremität ebenfalls eine verbesserte Organperfusion bewirkt, jedoch nahezu risikofrei und wiederholbar eingesetzt werden kann. Der klinische Einsatz der ECP erfolgt hauptsächlich als alternative Therapieoption bei Patienten mit Angina pectoris zur Verbesserung der Koronarperfusion [2]. Mehrere Studien zeigten, daß mittels der ECP auch die Perfusion im Gebiet der hirnversorgenden Gefässe verbessert werden kann [1,5]. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde der Einfluß der ECP auf die okuläre Perfusion bei verschiedenen Patientengruppen unter-sucht. Gleichzeitig wurde der Effekt der ECP bei Pa-tienten mit Retinainfarkt geprüft, einem Krankheitsbild mit gegenwärtig nur eingeschränkten Therapieoptionen.

AIMS
Cardiac output limitation is a fundamental feature of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) but the relative contribution of its determinants in symptomatic vs. asymptomatic stages are not well characterized. We aimed to gain insight into disease mechanisms by performing comprehensive comparative non-invasive exercise imaging in patients across the disease spectrum.


METHODS AND RESULTS
We performed bicycle stress echocardiography in 10 healthy controls, 13 patients with hypertensive left ventricular (LV) concentric remodelling and asymptomatic diastolic dysfunction (HTDD), 15 HFpEF patients, and 15 subjects with isolated right ventricular (RV) dysfunction secondary to chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). During exercise, ventricular performance differed across the groups (all P ≤ 0.01 for interaction). Notably in controls, LV and RV function significantly increased (all P < 0.05) while both LV systolic and diastolic reserve were significantly reduced in HFpEF patients. Likewise, RV systolic reserve was also impaired in HFpEF but not to the extent of CTEPH patients (P < 0.001 between groups). HTDD patients behaved as an intermediary group with borderline LV systolic and diastolic reserve and reduced RV systolic reserve. The increased pulmonary vascular (PV) load in HFpEF and CTEPH patients in combination with impaired RV reserve resulted in RV-pulmonary artery uncoupling during exercise.


CONCLUSION
The multifaceted decline of cardiac and PV function accompanying disease progression in HFpEF is unmasked by exercise and already emerges in preclinical disease. The revelation of these subtle abnormalities during exercise illustrates the benefit of exercise imaging and creates new prospects for early diagnosis and management.

Impaired biventricular contractile reserve in patients with diastolic dysfunction: insights from exercise stress echocardiography.

Die echokardiographiesche Untersuchung der Myokardperfusion basiert auf der Detektion von im Blut angereicherten Kontrastmittel. Dieses verursacht einen Anstieg der Signalintensität des Empfangssignales. Ulfraschallkontrastmittel bestehen aus Mikrobläschen von Luft oder Fluorkohlenwasserstoffen, die durch eine Kapsel aus Fettsäure, Eiweiß, oder Phospholipid stabilisiert werden, um nach intravenöser Injektion die Passage der Lungenstrombahn zu ermöglichen. Vom eingestrahlten Ultraschall angeregt, beginnen die Mikrobläschen zu schwingen und emittieren dabei harmonische Schwingungen. Durch Bildaufbau aus Ultraschallsignalen, die ausschließlich aus dem second-harmonicFrequenzbereich stammen, ist eine bessere Unterscheidung von Myokardsignal (geringe Anteile harmonischer Schwingungen) und Kontrastmittelsignal (höhere Anteile harmonischer Schwingungen) möglich. Trotzdem führt die Kontrastmittelgabe, verglichen mit dem Gesamtdynamikumfang des Signals, nur zu einem geringen Anstieg der Signalintensität. Zur quantitativen Auswertung der Myokardperfusion müssen diese geringen Änderungen der Echo-Signalintensität des Myokards herangezogen werden [1,2]. Wechselnde Schalldämpfung durch Veränderung der Schnittebende oder bedingt durch die Atmung des Patienten lassen deutliche Schwankungen der Meßwerte erwarten [3]. In der vorliegenden Arbeit untersuchten wir den Einfluß der Atmung auf die Quantifizierung von EchoKontrasteffekten.
