7. PRELOAD IN THE WHOLE HEART PRELOAD SHOULD CONSTITUTE THE TENSION IN THE WALL AT THE END OF DIASTOLE ( WHICH DETERMINES THE RESTING FIBER LENGTH). FOR PRACTICAL PURPOSES THE VENTRICULAR EDV/EDP IS USED TO INDICATE PRELOAD. IT AFFECTS HEART PERFORMANCE BY “STARLING’S LAW OF THE HEART”.
15. THE LOAD AND SHORTENING VELOCITY (RELATED TO AFTERLOAD).

20. INCREASING PRELOAD INCREASES MAXIMAL ISOMETRIC FORCE AND INCREASES SHORTENING VELOCITY AT A GIVEN AFTERLOAD,DOESNOT ALTER Vmax.
30. WHAT IS HEART FAILURE?? HEART FAILURE OCCURS WHEN THE HEART IS UNABLE TO PUMP BLOOD AT A RATE SUFFICIENT TO MEET THE METABOLIC DEMANDS OF THE BODY OF AN INDIVIDUAL.
40. Cardiac Compensation and Decompensation in Heart Failure Shuvam Roy 4th semester student Medical College &Hospital Bengal 88 college street, Kolkata West Bengal India
41. Heart failure Definition: failure of heart to pump enough blood to satisfy the needs of body Types: I) Acute or chronic II) Unilateral (Left/Right) or Bilateral
42. Cardiac compensation Compensatory mechanisms maintain adequate CO & tissue perfusion Mechanisms: sympathetic stimulation fluid retention of kidney varying degrees of recovery of the heart itself
43. Sympathetic stimulation Occurs within 30s of acute heart failure CVS reflexes stimulate sympathetic NS and inhibit parasympathetic NS Effects: Increased strength of heart Increased mean systemic filling pressure Maintains pressure for perfusion of vital organs
44. CVS reflexes Baroreceptor reflex Chemoreceptor reflex CNS ischaemic response Reflexes originating in the heart
46. Chemoreceptor reflex Aortic & carotid bodies stimulated by hypoxia, local concentration of H + & CO2 impulses travel via vagus and Hering’s nervesstimulation of VMC
47. CNS ischaemic response VMC is directly stimulated by increase in local concentration of H+ & CO2 hypoxia
48. Bainbridge reflex Increase in atrial pressure stimulates atrial stretch receptors which causes reflex increase in heart rate and myocardial contractility Afferent pathway: vagus nerve Efferent pathway: sympathetic and vagus nerves
49.
50.
51. Fluid retention by the kidneys Occurs over hours to days Beneficial when pumping ability of heart is not very severely damaged Occurs due to activation of renin- angiotensin-aldosterone system Decrease in renal blood flow causes decrease in GFR Increased aldosterone secretion Increased ADH secretion Effects: Increase in mean systemic filling pressure Decreased venous resistance
52. Recovery of the heart Occurs over weeks to months Includes Development of collateral blood supply Fringe areas outside the infarct zone become functional Hypertrophy of functional areas occur Increased collagen that may reduce dilatation
53. Hypertrophy of myocardium In hemodynamic overload it reduces elevated ventricular wall stress to normal In pressure overload, increased systolic pressureincreased systolic stressparallel addition of new myofibrilswall thickening and consequent concentric hypertrophydecreased systolic stress In volume overload, increased diastolic pressureincreased diastolic stressserial addition of new sarcomeres chamber enlargement and eccentric hypertrophy decreased diastolic pressure
54.
55. If heart recovers sufficiently and if adequate fluid volume has been retained, sympathetic stimulation gradually abates towards normal However, cardiac reserve is reduced.
56. Decompensated heart failure Occurs when compensatory mechanisms can no longer maintain an adequate tissue perfusion The same factors that are responsible for cardiac compensation can exacerbate cardiac decompensation
57. Factors behind cardiac decompensation Salt & water retention: pulmonary congestion, anasarca Vasoconstriction: increases cardiac energy expenditure Sympathetic stimulation: increases cardiac energy expenditure Hypertrophy:deterioration and death of cardiac myocytes Increased collagen: impairs relaxation Cardiac remodelling
58. Progressive oedema Compensatory mechanisms fail to raise CO high enough to make kidneys excrete enough water Detrimental effects of fluid retention- Diagnosed by progressive pulmonary congestion and anasarca, bubbling rales in lung and dyspnoea. Treatment Cardiotonic drugs like digitalis Diuretics Restrict salt and fluid intake ANP and BNP delay decompensation by increasing salt and water excretion by kidneys
59.
60.
61. Right or left heart failure does not lead to immediate peripheral oedema as ,initially , there is a fall in capillary pressure. But peripheral oedema begins after one day or so due to fluid retention by the kidneys
62. Acute pulmonary oedema in heart failure Left heart failure causes pulmonary congestion and oedema Pulmonary oedemadecreased oxygenation of bloodfurther weakening of heart and peripheral vasodilatationincreased venous return due to peripheral vasodilatationmore pulmonary oedema
63. Cardiogenic shock Low output heart failure shockfall in arterial pressuredecrease in coronary blood flowdamage to heart Vicious cycle Treatment Surgical clot removal with coronary bypass graft Fibrinolytics Cardiotonic drugs Increase blood pressure

66. HEART FAILURE PATHOPHYSIOLOGY AND CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS Medical College &Hospital Bengal 88 college street, Kolkata West Bengal India Presented by: AVIK BASU
80. The molecular basis of systolic failure involves three components: • Contractile proteins • Calcium homeostasis • Signal transduction pathways
81. CHANGES IN CONTRACTILE PROTEINS Slowing of cross-bridge cycling rate Increased expression of fetal isoform of Troponin-T Reduced phosphorylation of Troponin-I
85. CHANGES IN SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION PATHWAYS Decreased number of β-adrenoreceptors Increased expression of β-adrenoreceptor kinase Increased expression of inhibitory G-protein
87. CHARACTERISTIC OF HEART IN SYSTOLIC FAILURE Eccentric left ventricular hypertrophy Progressive left ventricular dilatation Abnormal left ventricular systolic properties
89. FACTORS REGULATING VENTRICULAR RELAXATION Systolic Load Myofibre inactivation Uniformity of the distribution of load and inactivation over space and time Left ventricular relaxation is under the ‘Triple Control’ of:
92. • Titin protein has two isoforms: (1) N2BA (2) N2B • N2B isoform is stiffer than N2BA isoform. • Predominance of N2B isoform in the heart leads to increased stiffness of the ventricles leading to diastolic dysfunctioning.
93. CHARACTERISTIC OF HEART IN DIASTOLIC FAILURE Concentric left ventricular hypertrophy Normal or reduced left ventricular volume Concentric remodelling Abnormal left ventricular diastolic properties
123. For More severe heart failure -> loop diuretics Furosemide, Bumetanide , Torsemide Mechanism ofaction: Inhibit chloride reabsortion in ascending limb of loop of Henle results in natriuresis, kaliuresis and metabolic alkalosis Adverse reaction: pre-renal azotemia Hypokalemia Skin rash ototoxicity
124. K+ Sparing Agents Potassium sparing diuretics help in reducing the hypokalemia due to otherdiuretics. Triamterene & amiloride – acts on distal tubules to ↓ K secretion Spironolactone (Aldosterone antagonist) it improve survival in CHF patients due to the effect on renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system with subsequent effect on myocardial remodeling and fibrosis Aldosterone inhibition minimize potassium loss, prevent sodium and water retention, endothelial dysfunction and myocardial fibrosis.
125.
126. Reninangiotensin system Baroreceptor mediated activation of the SNS leads to an increase in renin release and formation of angiotensin II AngiotensinII acts through AT1 and AT2 receptors (most of its actions occur through AT1 receptors) This causes vasoconstriction and stimulates aldosteroneproduction aldosterone may also cause myocardial and vascular fibrosis and baroreceptor dysfunction
127.
128. Inhibitors of renin-angiotensin- aldosterone system Angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors Angiotensin receptors blockers Spironolactone(Aldosterone antagonist)
132. Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors MOA They block the R-A-A system by inhibiting the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II -> vasodilation and ↓ Na retention ↓ Bradykinin degradation ↑ its level -> ↑ PG secretion & nitric oxide
133. Angiotensin Receptor AT-1 blockers (ARB) Losartan, Irbesartan, Candesartan Competitive antagonists of Angiotensin II (AT-1). Has comparable effect to ACE I Can be used in certain conditions when ACE I are contraindicated (angioneurotic edema, cough)
134. ACE-Inhibitors and ARB effects Vasodilation Decreased fluid retention (afterload & preload) Reduction in aldosterone secretion Inhibition of cardiac and vascular remodeling
139. Cardiac glycosides : Digoxin (Digitalis) inhibit Na +,K +ATPase, the membrane-bound transporter increase of intracellular sodium concentration a relative reduction of calcium expulsion from the cell by the sodium-calcium Exchanger due to ↑ Na distinctive increase in Cardiac contractility during systole increased cytoplasmic calcium is sequestered by SERCA in the SR for later release
140. early, brief prolongation of the action potential, followed by shortening (especially the plateau phase) The decrease in action potential duration is probably the result of increased potassium conductance that is caused by increased intracellular calcium Effects of Digoxin on Electrical Properties of Cardiac Tissues
141. inhibition of the Na+ pump and reduced intracellular K+ resting membrane potential is reduced oscillatory delayed depolarizing afterpotentials appear following normally evoked action potentials At higher concentrations…….. overloading of the intracellular calcium stores and oscillations in the free intracellular calcium ion concentration

146. Inhibition of PDE3 Increase in cAMP the conversion of inactive protein kinase to active form Protein kinases are responsible for phosphorylation of Ca channels increased Ca entry into the cell increase in contractility vasodilation ↑ Vascular Permeability leads to ↓ in intravascular fluid Volume
147. β Blockers bisoprolol, carvedilol , metoprolol MOA Acts primarily by inhibiting the sympathetic nervous system (attenuation of the adverse effects of high concentrations of catecholamines) reduced remodeling (inhibition of the mitogenic activity of catecholamines.) Increases beta receptor sensitivity
150. Anti-arrhythmic & Anti-oxidant properties. shows substantial improvement in LV function & improved survival The only contraindication is severe decompensated CHF
151. Vasodilators Reduction of afterloadby arteriolar vasodilatation (hydralazin) reduce LVEDP, O2 consumption,improve myocardial perfusion, stroke volume and COP Reduction of preload Byvenous dilation ( Nitrate)↓ the venous return ↓ the load on both ventricles. Usually the maximum benefit is achieved by using agents with both action.
152.
