Reliable measurement methods for the isovolumic relaxation time: comparisons of dual gate Doppler and seven other methods. [PDF]

open access: hybridJ Echocardiogr, 2023
Abstract Purpose Isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) is a useful indicator of diastolic dysfunction. However, a measurement method for IVRT has not been established. The Dual Gate Doppler method, which can record two separate pulse-wave Doppler signals simultaneously using two sample gates, may be ideal for measuring IVRT.

Assessment of left ventricular relaxation by Doppler echocardiography. Comparison of isovolumic relaxation time and transmitral flow velocities with time constant of isovolumic relaxation. [PDF]

open access: bronzeCirculation, 1990
Isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) and events of early transmitral flow measured by Doppler echocardiography were validated against the time constant of left ventricular relaxation (tau) in open-chest dogs. During increased inotropy (by isoproterenol infusion) at constant preload, enhancement of relaxation was indicated by a decrease in tau from 48 ...

Relation of left ventricular isovolumic relaxation time and incoordination to transmitral Doppler filling patterns [PDF]

open access: bronzeHeart, 1992
To investigate factors during isovolumic relaxation that determine Doppler filling patterns in patients with left ventricular disease, and thus to identify the underlying mechanisms.85 patients (50 ischaemic heart disease, 35 left ventricular hypertrophy due to aortic stenosis) and 26 controls were studied with Doppler and M mode echocardiography and ...

Estimation of Elevated Systolic Pulmonary Artery Pressure Using Right Ventricular Isovolumic Relaxation Time

open access: hybridVidarbha Journal of Internal Medicine, 2022
Objectives: Echocardiographic estimation of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in absence of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) remains a challenge. Isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) measured by Doppler tissue imaging (DTI) can be a useful method to estimate PH. This study was designed to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of the right ventricle (RV) IVRT for ...

Influence of sotalol on the time constant of isovolumic left ventricular relaxation in anesthetized dogs [PDF]

open access: bronzeAmerican Journal of Veterinary Research, 1999
Abstract Objective To determine the effects of various doses of sotalol on myocardial relaxation in healthy dogs. Animals 12 healthy adult mixed-breed dogs anesthetized with thiopental and α-chloralose. Procedures Left ventricular pressure (LVP), aortic pressure, and aortic flow velocity were measured. The time constant of isovolumic relaxation (τ)

Assessment of fetal left cardiac isovolumic relaxation time in appropriate and small-for-gestational-age fetuses [PDF]

open access: bronzeUltrasound in Medicine & Biology, 1995
Left ventricular isovolumic relaxation time was studied in 22 appropriate-for-gestational-age fetuses (AGA, 26-40 wk) and 12 small-for-gestational-age fetuses (SGA, 29-37 wk). Left ventricular isovolumic relaxation time was determined from the interval between aortic valve closure and maximal left atrial dimension by M-mode, and from the interval ...

Effect of diltiazem on left ventricular isovolumic relaxation time in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

open access: bronzeJapanese Circulation Journal, 1983
The effect of diltiazem on left ventricular isovolumic relaxation time was examined in 11 patients with hypertrophic obstructive and non-obstructive cardiomyopathy in a combined study using phonocardiograms and echocardiograms. Five to 10 min after intravenous injection of diltiazem (0.2 mg/kg, body weight), a prolonged isovolumic left ventricular ...
