Overview

Diastolic dysfunction is the mechanical abnormality of the heart to properly relax and fill with blood during diastole. Several medical conditions may lead to diastolic dysfunction and they include impaired myocardial relaxation, increased myocardial stiffness and extrinsic constraint on the heart.

Causes

In alphabetical order:

• Amyloidosis
• Aortic stenosis
• Constrictive pericarditis
• Diabetes
• Effusive-constrictive pericarditis
• Glycogen storage disease
• Hemochromatosis
• Hypereosinophilic syndrome
• Hypertrophic heart diseases(for example, as seen in hypertension)
• Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM)
• Infiltrative diseases ( for example, amyloidosis)
• Ischemia
• Mitral stenosis
• Myocardial infarction and scar
• Pericardial effusion
• Restrictive cardiomyopathy
• Sarcoidosis
• Systolic dysfunction
