Left Ventricular Filling

Heart Failure Clinics, 2008
During diastole, the left ventricle receives blood from the left atrium that is subsequently ejected into the systemic circulation. In simple terms, the efficiency of left ventricular (LV) filling can be measured as the ability to receive a large volume of blood at a rapid filling rate under low filling pressures. Numerous passive and active properties

Left Ventricular Aneurysmectomy

Archives of Surgery, 1976
Comparison of preoperative and postoperative studies in 81 patients undergoing left ventricular aneurysmectomy failed to show consistent hemodynamic trends. The most reliable prognostic indicator for survival (84% early, 71% late) was the function of the basilar ventricular segments.

Left ventricular pseudodiverticulum

Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2008
The differential diagnosis between left ventricular aneurysm and diverticulum remains a matter of debate. Cardiac magnetic resonance is dramatically helpful in the anatomical and functional characterization of the walls of any angiographical left ventricular outpouching.

Left ventricular hypertrophy

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
The presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) as a treatable entity is of particular importance in patients with primary hypertension. Because LVH is associated with a strong risk of adverse clinical events (eg, heart failure, ischemic events, and cardiovascular death) and because evidence from retrospective studies suggests that regression of LVH,

Left Ventricular Noncompaction

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2010
According to the World Health Organization classification of cardiomyopathies, left ventricular noncompaction is still an unclassified cardiomyopathy. In 2006, the American Heart Association classified this entity as a primary cardiomyopathy of genetic origin.

Left ventricular enlargement

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1985
Electrophysiology/Characteristics/Morphology: Increased duration of QRS interval, delay of intrinsicoid deflection, and increased QRS voltage tend to occur. "Strain" refers to T-wave inversion with depressed upwardly convex ST segments in the setting of LVE. Leftward axis is common, but not always found with LVE.

Left ventricular thrombus

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001
Left ventricular thrombus (LVT) is a frequent complication in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction (MI) and in those with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The clinical importance of LVT lies in its potential to embolize. The current treatment of patients with acute MI centers on reperfusion, and although controversial, the incidence of LVT ...

Left ventricular noncompaction

Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2011
Left ventricular noncompaction is a rare cardiomyopathy characterized by prominent ventricular hypertrabeculation. Here, we discuss the case of a 30-year-old man who presented with rapidly conducted atrial fibrillation. The images we present demonstrate appearances characteristic of this cardiomyopathy, with prominent trabeculations and an end ...

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy

Postgraduate Medicine, 1968
The electrocardiogram or vectorcardiogram often indicates features compatible with left ventricular hypertrophy in persons who do not have the condition. Increased QRS voltage, increased QRS duration, and ST-T changes in an isolated electrocardiogram or vectorcardiogram may mislead the physician, but serial records noting progressive changes ...
