Abstract
Comprehensive knowledge of the left atrium (LA) and its pathophysiology has emerged as an important clinical and research focus in the heart failure (HF) arena. Although studies on HF focusing on investigating left ventricular remodeling are numerous, those on atrial structural and functional changes have received comparatively less attention. Studies on LA remodeling have recently received increasing attention, and LA pressure (LAP) has become a novel target for advanced monitoring and is a potential therapeutic approach for treating HF. Various devices specifically designed for the direct measurement of LAP have been developed to optimize HF treatment by reducing LAP. This review focuses on LA hemodynamic monitoring and effective LAP decompression.
全面了解左心房(LA)及其病理生理学已成为心力衰竭(HF)领域重要的临床和研究重点。尽管以调查左心室重塑为重点的高频研究不胜枚举,但有关心房结构和功能变化的研究受到的关注却相对较少。最近,有关 LA 重塑的研究受到越来越多的关注,LA 压力(LAP)已成为高级监测的新目标,也是治疗 HF 的潜在治疗方法。目前已开发出各种专门用于直接测量 LAP 的设备,以通过降低 LAP 来优化心房颤动的治疗。本综述重点介绍 LA 血流动力学监测和有效的 LAP 减压。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
