losartan and Ventricular Dysfunction, Left

losartan has been researched along with Ventricular Dysfunction, Left in 50 studies

Losartan: An antagonist of ANGIOTENSIN TYPE 1 RECEPTOR with antihypertensive activity due to the reduced pressor effect of ANGIOTENSIN II.
losartan : A biphenylyltetrazole where a 1,1'-biphenyl group is attached at the 5-position and has an additional trisubstituted imidazol-1-ylmethyl group at the 4'-position

Ventricular Dysfunction, Left: A condition in which the LEFT VENTRICLE of the heart was functionally impaired. This condition usually leads to HEART FAILURE; MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION; and other cardiovascular complications. Diagnosis is made by measuring the diminished ejection fraction and a depressed level of motility of the left ventricular wall.

Left Ventricular End Diastolic Volume Indexed to Body Surface Area

Left Ventricular End Diastolic Volume Indexed to Body Surface Area: As an indicator of heart size, the blood volume of the heart is related to the body size. The end diastolic volume is the blood volume of the heart at the end of filling, just before contraction. The relation of heart blood volume to body size is more accurate in determining pathology because larger people require a larger heart blood volume. The values that are too high or too low indicate a diseased myocardium. (NCT01052428)

Left Ventricular End Systolic Volume Indexed to Body Surface Area As an indicator of heart size, the blood volume of the heart is related to the body size. The end systolic volume is the blood volume of the heart at the end of contraction and is an index of the pump function of the heart.

Left Ventricular End-diastolic Mass Indexed to Left Ventricular End-diastolic Volume

Left Ventricular End-diastolic Mass Indexed to Left Ventricular End-diastolic Volume As an indicator of heart muscle mass and heart blood volume, the mass indexed to end diastolic volume determines whether there is an adequate amount of heart muscle to pump the heart blood volume obtained from a three-dimensional analysis.

Peak Early Filling Rate: Rate of Change Over Time

Peak Early Filling Rate The peak early filling rate of change is calculated from the slope of the volume during the early filling of the heart with respect to time. The higher values indicate a very healthy heart muscle and lower values are indicative of a very stiff muscle. (NCT01052428)

Systolic Longitudinal Strain

Systolic Longitudinal Strain. By identifying two points on the heart, the strain is the difference between the distance between these two points at the end of filling of the heart and the end of contraction divided by the length at the end of filling. Thus, the measure is like the ejection fraction, however the strain is more localized to a specified segment in the heart muscle. The higher values indicate a healthy heart. (NCT01052428)

Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF)

LVEF is a calculation of heart pump function determined from the volume after complete filling minus the volume after complete contraction divided by the volume after complete filling. A value of 55% or greater is normal. This is a measure of LV Systolic Function. Since some visits did not occur at the scheduled 6 month intervals, the results have been divided into 3-month visit intervals for reporting purposes (NCT01052272)

Left Ventricular End Systolic Volume Indexed to Body Surface Area (LVESV/BSA)

LVESV/BSA: The end systolic volume is the blood volume of the heart at the end of contraction and is an index of the pump function of the heart. This relation to body size is more accurate in determining pathology because larger people require a larger heart blood volume. The values that are too high or too low indicate a diseased myocardium. This is a measure of LV Systolic Function. Since some visits did not occur at the scheduled 6 month intervals, the results have been divided into 3-month visit intervals. (NCT01052272)
Timeframe: 5 visits per Participant over 2 years (about every 6 months)

Left Ventricular End-diastolic Mass Indexed to Left Ventricular End-diastolic Volume (LVED Mass/LVEDV)

LVED Mass/LVEDV: As an indicator of heart muscle mass and heart blood volume, the mass indexed to end diastolic volume determines whether there is an adequate amount of heart muscle to pump the heart blood volume obtained from a three-dimensional analysis. The values that are too high or too low indicate a diseased myocardium. This is a measure of LV Geometry. Since some visits did not occur at the scheduled 6 month intervals, the results have been divided into 3-month visit intervals for reporting purposes. (NCT01052272)

Left Ventricular End-Diastolic Radius to Wall Thickness (LVED Radius/Wall Thickness)

LV End Systolic Maximum Shortening (LVES Max Shortening)

By identifying three points in three different planes in the heart muscle, the maximum shortening is the average of the difference between the distance between these three points at the end of filling of the heart and the end of contraction divided by the length at the end of filling times 100. The maximum shortening is a three dimensional analysis. The higher values indicate a healthy heart. This is a measure of LV Systolic Function. Since some visits did not occur at the scheduled 6 month intervals, the results have been divided into 3-month visit intervals for reporting purposes. (NCT01052272)

Peak Early Filling Rate Normalized to EDV

The Peak Early Filling Rate Normalized to EDV is calculated from the slope of the volume during the early filling of the heart with respect to time. The higher values indicate a very healthy heart muscle and lower values are indicative of a very stiff muscle. This is a measure of LV Diastolic Function. Since some visits did not occur at the scheduled 6 month intervals, the results have been divided into 3-month visit intervals for reporting purposes. (NCT01052272)
