The evaluation of left atrium as a heart failure evolution predictor in patients with
Arterial Hypertension

A
bout 50 Arterial Hypertension patients with developed
Heart Failure were examined: left atrium ECG and
Echocardiogram changes were estimated comparatively
in dynamics. It is well known, that in patients with Arterial
Hypertension developed changes of the Left Ventricle End-
Diastolic pressure manifest not only in the Left Ventricle
but in Left Atrium also. So that diastolic dysfunction and
systolic dysfunction both increase the loading of the Left
Atrium. By the cause of the Left Atrium muscle weakness
comparatively with Left Ventricle muscle, it manifests firstly
by functional and structure disturbances of the Left Atrium.
We investigated these disturbances in patients with Arterial
Hypertension by evaluation of their Electrocardiogram and
Echocardiogram indices in dynamics. Ongoing research
comparing ECG and Echocardiogram changes gave us
the opportunity to reveal Left Atrium ECG disturbances
relatively earlier than Echocardiogram structural changes.
Many times when we revealed ECG signs of Left Atrium
enlargement and loading, we did not observe any changes of
the Echocardiogram indices at the early period. Performed
investigations in Arterial Hypertension patients with Heart
Failure give the possibility to observe appropriate ECG
changes firstly. These changes may be the early predictor
of the possible developing Heart Failure in such patients,
moreover itmakes possible an optimal Arterial Hypertension
management retarding and delaying the origin of the Heart
Failure.
