Echocardiographic Quantification of Left Ventricular Systolic Function

Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2015
Assessment of left ventricular (LV) systolic function is the most common indication for performing an echocardiogram and, correspondingly, the detection and quantification of systolic dysfunction hold major implications for patient diagnosis and management.

Assessment of Left Ventricular Systolic Function by Echocardiography

Ultrasound Clinics, 2009
Echocardiography serves an extremely important role in the diagnosis and management of patients with heart failure. The various stages of structural and functional changes that constitute progressive left ventricle remodeling have all been characterized by two-dimensional echocardiography.

Significant left ventricular contribution to right ventricular systolic function

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1991
To examine the importance of systolic ventricular interdependence on right ventricular function, we used a unique electrically isolated right ventricular free wall preparation. Double-peaked waveforms for right ventricular pressure and pulmonary arterial blood flow occurred over a wide range of pacing intervals between the left and right ventricles ...

Evaluation of Left Ventricular Systolic Function

2010
Assessment of the left ventricular (LV) function is a very important step in the hemodynamic evaluation, not only for its contribution to diagnosis in heart and respiratory failure, but also for the guidance of therapeutic interventions.

Echo‐Doppler measures of right ventricular systolic function are affected by reduced left ventricular systolic function

Echocardiography, 2022
AbstractBackgroundObjective right ventricular (RV) systolic function assessment is attained using a series of well‐described and validated echo‐Doppler measurements. However, how left ventricular (LV) systolic function influences these RV functional measurements has not been previously studied.

Left ventricular systolic function

2018
Abstract Chapter 6 is subdivided into three sections: global LV systolic function, regional LV systolic function, and cardiomyopathies. In Section 1, commonly used indices of global systolic function, such as fractional area change and ejection fraction, are reviewed, along with their limitations related to oesophageal imaging.

Left ventricular function in systole and diastole in constrictive pericarditis

American Heart Journal, 1973
Abstract Left ventricular function was studied in systole and diastole in 30 patients with constrictive pericarditis. Left ventricular end-diastolic volume was used to divide the patients into three arbitrary groups: severe constriction (EDV 2 ), moderate constriction (EDV 25 to 50 ml./M. 2 ), and mild constriction (EDV > 50 ml./M. 2 ). The patients

Left Ventricular Systolic Myocardial Function in Ankylosing Spondylitis

Arthritis Care & Research, 2019
ObjectiveSubclinical left ventricular (LV) myocardial dysfunction is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but it is not known whether subclinical LV myocardial dysfunction is present in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) independent of CVD risk factors.MethodsConventional and speckle tracking echocardiography were ...

Left ventricular systolic function in primary aldosteronism and hypertension

Journal of Hypertension, 1998
This study was designed to investigate whether the excess aldosterone found in primary aldosteronism (PA) influences left-ventricular systolic function (LVSF), through a positive inotropic effectM-mode and two-dimensional echocardiography and transmitral Doppler flow velocity measurements were performed in 82 patients: 44 with confirmed PA (23 male; 21
