Pulseless Electrical Activity as the Initial Cardiac Arrest Rhythm: Importance of Preexisting Left Ventricular Function

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Pulseless electrical activity (PEA) is a common initial rhythm in cardiac arrest. A substantial number of PEA arrests are caused by coronary ischemia in the setting of acute coronary occlusion, but the underlying mechanism is not well ...

Left Ventricular Aneurysmectomy in Advanced Left Ventricular Dysfunction

open access: yesCardiology Clinics, 1995
Despite widespread application in clinical practice and extensive laboratory investigations, many basic issues regarding left ventricular aneurysmectomy remain to be resolved. Analysis of clinical data from the authors' three centers and application of powerful modern imaging techniques provide important information to resolve these issues.

Right Ventricular Function, Peripheral Edema, and Acute Kidney Injury in Critical Illness

open access: yesKidney International Reports, 2017
The cardiorenal syndrome generally focuses on left ventricular function, and the importance of the right ventricle as a determinant of renal function is described less frequently. In a cohort of critically ill patients with echocardiographic measurements
