Quantification of Left Ventricular Systolic Function

2010
The assessment of left ventricular (LV) systolic function is an essential part of all echocardiographic examinations and provides crucial and indispensable information for diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of almost all cardiac conditions.

The effect of collateral circulation on left ventricular systolic function

Coronary Artery Disease, 2007
Conflicting reports exist on the influence of coronary collateral circulation on preservation of left ventricular systolic function. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of coronary collateral circulation on left ventricular systolic function in coronary artery disease.Seventy-one consecutive patients having left anterior descending arteries ...

Novel techniques for assessment of left ventricular systolic function

Heart Failure Reviews, 2010
The evaluation of left ventricular systolic function is one of the most common reasons for referral for a non-invasive cardiac imaging study. In addition to its diagnostic and prognostic value, an assessment of ejection fraction can also be used to guide medical and device therapy.

The influence of obesity on left ventricular filling and systolic function

American Heart Journal, 1992
Little information on the possible influence of obesity on diastolic function is available. Thus we studied 24 asymptomatic obese volunteers (greater than 120% ideal body weight; mean 153 +/- 30%), aged 34 +/- 11 years. Each obese subject was matched for age, height, and sex, with a healthy normal-weight control subject.

Left ventricular systolic function

Abstract The evaluation of systolic left ventricular (LV) function is an important component of every transoesophageal echocardiographic examination. Prior to surgery, it helps to identify high-risk patients. In patients with haemodynamic instability, assessment of LV function guides fluid and inotropic therapy.

Left Ventricular Systolic Function and Systolic Asynchrony in Patients With Septic Shock and Normal Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

Shock, 2013
Few studies were performed to investigate the association between tissue Doppler imaging parameters about left ventricular (LV) systolic function and LV systolic asynchrony and prognosis in patients with septic shock and normal LV ejection fraction (LVEF).

Assessment of the Left Ventricular Systolic Function

2015
Abstract Evaluation of ventricular systolic function and cavity dimensions is an essential part of the echocardiographic examination. Treatment strategy and decisionmaking for a patient’s condition is affected by systolic function. Echocardiography plays a major in monitoring the effects of therapy.

Echocardiography Evaluation of Left Ventricular Systolic Function, Systolic Dysfunction, and Ventricular Dyssynchrony

2018
The ejection fraction (EF) is the most widely used measure and popular method in evaluating left ventricular (LV) systolic function and is considered a critical prognostic factor in all types of heart diseases.

Right ventricular long‐axis function in relation to left ventricular systolic function

Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, 2004
SummaryA decrease in left ventricular (LV) systolic function is accompanied by a decrease in maximal relaxation velocity in LV long‐axis direction, but is it also accompanied by a decrease in right ventricular (RV) long‐axis function? To study this 35 consecutive patients were examined by echocardiography.
