Aging and the relationships between long-axis systolic and early diastolic excursion, isovolumic relaxation time and left ventricular length-Implications for the interpretation of aging effects on e`. [PDF]
Background Both the left ventricular (LV) long-axis peak early diastolic lengthening velocity (e`) and long-axis early diastolic excursion (EDExc) decrease with age, but the mechanisms underlying these decreases are not fully understood.

Right Ventricular Myocardial Isovolumic Relaxation Time as Novel Method for Evaluation of Pulmonary Hypertension: Correlation with Endothelin-1 Levels [PDF]
Noninvasive assessment of pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) has several limitations. Right ventricular (RV) isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) is sensitive to changes in PASP. Blood pool-derived RV IVRT correlates well with PASP. However, because of complex parameter derivation, the method is rarely used. Endothelin (ET)-1 levels are elevated in

The dependence of the time constant of left ventricular isovolumic relaxation (tau) on pericardial pressure. [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to investigate the dependence of tau, the time constant of left ventricular (LV) isovolumic relaxation, on pericardial pressure and to compare values of tau as determined by the methods of previous investigators and by a standard exponential curve fit.

Isovolumic relaxation intraventricular pressure difference predicts elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure in patients with coronary artery disease [PDF]
Current guideline for evaluating diastolic function requires multiple parameters to identify patients with elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). However, the intermediate result still exists and may cause LVEDP undetermined.

Diastolic And Systolic Right Ventricular Dysfunction Precedes Left Ventricular Dysfunction In Patients Paced From Right Ventricular Apex [PDF]
Background: Cardiac dysfunction after right ventricular (RV) apical pacing is well known but its extent, time frame of appearance and individual effect on left ventricular (LV), RV systolic and diastolic parameters has not evaluated in a systematic ...

In order to determine whether isovolumic relaxation period (IRP) reflects left ventricular relaxation under different afterload conditions, 17 anesthetized, open chest dogs were studied, and the left ventricular pressure decay time constant (T) was calculated.
