Abstract
The pericardium plays an important role in modulating cardiac performance and hemodynamics in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Pericardial constraint increases filling pressures in patients with HFpEF, particularly those with the obesity phenotype, atrial myopathy, right ventricular dysfunction, and tricuspid regurgitation. Preclinical and early stage clinical studies indicate that pericardiotomy may become a novel treatment for HFpEF. This review summarizes and discusses the pathophysiology of pericardial restraint and the possibility of pericardiotomy in HFpEF.
期刊介绍：
Heart Failure Reviews is an international journal which develops links between basic scientists and clinical investigators, creating a unique, interdisciplinary dialogue focused on heart failure, its pathogenesis and treatment. The journal accordingly publishes papers in both basic and clinical research fields. Topics covered include clinical and surgical approaches to therapy, basic pharmacology, biochemistry, molecular biology, pathology, and electrophysiology.
The reviews are comprehensive, expanding the reader''s knowledge base and awareness of current research and new findings in this rapidly growing field of cardiovascular medicine. All reviews are thoroughly peer-reviewed before publication.
