Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) can play a role in diagnosis of coronary artery disease and in the assessment of left ventricle (LV) and right ventricle global function, with initial good correlation results with standard modalities. With the latest scanners, regional LV contractility with both qualitative and quantitative assessment has ...

Abstract An understanding of the core cardiovascular physiological principles is fundamental to delivering clinical care to patients. In order to successfully deliver oxygen and other nutrients to end organs while eliminating waste products, cardiac output is manipulated through the control of heart rate, blood pressure, stroke volume, preload ...

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1973
To the Editor.— I would question the medical wisdom of having patients use a magnet at home to change their demand pacemaker to the fixed rate (222:1379, 1972). The first time a physician encounters a ventricular fibrillation in a patient and the patient dies, he is going to be liable not only for wrongful death, but for punitive damages, because of ...

regular heavy ethanol consumption has been associated with a type of nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy termed “alcoholic cardiomyopathy” (ACM), which is clinically expressed as an impairment of left ventricular function (nonsymptomatic stage) and occasionally as overt heart failure ...

Subclinical Hypothyroidism and Cardiac Function
Thyroid, 2002The cardiovascular system is sensitive to the action of thyroid hormone. However, although a wide spectrum of cardiac abnormalities has long been recognized in patients with overt thyroid dysfunction, the question of cardiac involvement in patients with subclinical thyroid dysfunction has been investigated only in the last two to three decades.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy and cardiac sympathetic function
European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2015AbstractBackgroundCardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established therapy for advanced congestive heart failure, improving both survival and hospitalization. The mechanism beneath these improvements still needs to be defined as about one‐third of the patients do not benefit from resynchronization.

Alcohol Effects on Cardiac Function
Comprehensive Physiology, 2015ABSTRACTThe consumption of ethanol can have both beneficial and detrimental effects on the function of the heart and cardiovascular system, depending on the amount consumed. Low‐to‐moderate amounts of ethanol intake are associated with improvements in cardiac function and vascular health. On the other hand, ethanol chronically consumed in large amounts

Nitric oxide and cardiac function
Life Sciences, 2007Nitric oxide (NO) participates in the control of contractility and heart rate, limits cardiac remodeling after an infarction and contributes to the protective effect of ischemic pre- and postconditioning. Low concentrations of NO, with production of small amounts of cGMP, inhibit phosphodiesterase III, thus preventing the hydrolysis of cAMP.

Assessment of cardiac function in an integral part of the assessment of the fetal circulation. Cardiac dysfunction can be assessed by standard echocardiographic modalities including 2D, M-mode and Doppler echocardiography. Other techniques may enhance quantification of cardiac function, particularly in a research setting, including tissue Doppler, 3D ...
