Abstract
Congestive heart failure caused by a predominant abnormality in diastolic function is both common and causes significant morbidity and mortality. However, there is a continued controversy surroundings the definition of diastolic dysfunction and the diagnostic criteria for diastolic heart failure. Recent clinical studies have provided sufficient data to develop standardized diagnostic criteria to define diastolic heart failure.

Congestive heart failure caused by a predominant abnormality in diastolic function is both common and causes significant morbidity and mortality
A prospective analysis was done in 160 consecutive patients who attended Medicare National Hospital And Research Center and NAMS, Bir Hospital, 55 male and 45 female with hypertension (HTN) or diabetes Mellitus (DM), or Ischaemic heart disease (IHD) included in the study while patients having valvular heart disease and cardiomyopathy were excluded from this study. 36 male and 24 female, not having HTN, DM or IHD were taken as control group
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction was most commonly seen in diabetic patients and least commonly in ischaemic group
Summary
Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction In Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus And Ischaemic Heart Disease. Congestive heart failure caused by a predominant abnormality in diastolic function is both common and causes significant morbidity and mortality. There is a continued controversy surroundings the definition of diastolic dysfunction and the diagnostic criteria for diastolic heart failure. Recent clinical studies have provided sufficient data to develop standardized diagnostic criteria to define diastolic heart failure
