Prevalence of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction among hypertensive adults in Klang Valley, Malaysia
Heart failure in many patients is due to left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction (LVDD), but little is known about its prevalence among hypertensive adults, especially in the primary care setting. , This quantitative study aims to evaluate the prevalence and factors associated with LVDD. A cross-sect...
