Right ventricular diastolic function in post-surgical Tetralogy of Fallot patients: A pilot study to make a comparison between echocardiography and cardiac MRI

International Journal of Cardiology Congenital Heart Disease, 2021
Background: right ventricular (RV) systolic dysfunction is associated with poor outcomes in Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) patients. Conversely, the influence of diastolic dysfunction in this setting is poorly known.

Repolarization Dispersion Is Associated With Diastolic Electromechanical Discoordination in Children With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Electromechanical dyssynchrony is a well described comorbidity in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). ECG‐derived measurements reflective of diastolic dysfunction and electromechanical imaging markers are yet to be investigated.

The relationship between baseline diastolic dysfunction and postimplantation invasive hemodynamics with transcatheter aortic valve replacement. [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND Abnormal invasive hemodynamics after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is associated with poor survival; however, the mechanism is unknown.

Cardiac dysfunction in patients with end-stage liver disease, prevalence, and impact on outcome: a comparative prospective cohort study

Egyptian Liver Journal, 2022
Background Without firm diagnostic criteria, the exact prevalence of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy still remains unknown. Its estimation is rather a difficult task as the disease is generally latent and shows itself only when the patient is subjected to overt

Echocardiographic Detection of Occult Diastolic Dysfunction in Pulmonary Hypertension After Fluid Challenge

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Identification of occult diastolic dysfunction often requires invasive right heart catheterization with provocative maneuvers such as fluid challenge. Non‐invasive predictors of occult diastolic dysfunction have not been identified.

Association of fragmented QRS complexes on ECG with left ventricular diastolic function in hypertensive patients

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2015
Objectives: Diastolic dysfunction occurs as a result of interstitial fibrosis in hypertensive patients. Fragmented QRS (fQRS) on ECG signifies myocardial fibrosis in various clinical situations.
