Septal-to-basal ventricular peak activation time determined by vectorcardiography as a potential new pre-screening parameter for preclinical dilated cardiomyopathy in Doberman Pinschers

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
BackgroundEarly diagnosis of preclinical dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains challenging in primary veterinary medicine due to the need for echocardiography and 24-h Holter electrocardiogram (ECG) recording.

Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction After Myocardial Infarction

, 2021
The left ventricular systolic dysfunction is one of the most common complications after myocardial infarction. The damage of the large area of the cardiac muscle leads to a significant decrease in cardiac contractility.

Left ventricular diastolic function and cardiotoxic chemotherapy

The Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Left ventricular ejection fraction falls when the myocardium has already lost a significant portion of its functional capacity. There are conflicting data on whether diastolic dysfunction precedes systolic dysfunction after cardiotoxic ...

Diastolic And Systolic Right Ventricular Dysfunction Precedes Left Ventricular Dysfunction In Patients Paced From Right Ventricular Apex

, 2006
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 ...

Cardiovascular Risk Factors from Early Life Predict Future Adult Cardiac Structural and Functional Abnormalities: A Systematic Review of the Published Literature

, 2014
Background: Clinical practice evaluates cardiovascular risk based on current risk factor (RF) levels [Blood pressure (BP), body mass index (BMI) and glycaemic control] largely disregarding previous risk-factor history over the totality of the life course.
