Echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular systolic function [PDF]
Journal of Echocardiography, 2018 Left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF) is the most validated and commonly used echocardiographic measure of systolic function. LVEF has a unique position in cardiology having severed as selection criteria for therapeutic trials that constitute the evidence base of today's treatment recommendations.

Left ventricular global systolic function assessment by echocardiography
Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2016 The left ventricle, with its thickened myocardial walls, unlike the right ventricle has no measurable geometric shape. It has a conical apex and its function quantification, needs intensive, 2D, 3D and M mode transesophageal echocardiography, which is ...

Left Ventricular Diastolic and Systolic Functions in Patients with Hypothyroidism [PDF]
Medicina, 2020 Background and objectives: Long standing hypothyroidism may impair myocardial relaxation, but its effect on systolic myocardial function is still controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic function in patients with hypothyroidism. Materials and Methods: This study included 81 (age 42 ± 13 years,

The architecture of the left ventricular myocytes relative to left ventricular systolic function [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2009 Objective: Mural thickening, combined with longitudinal and circumferential shortening, and apical along with basal twisting are critical components of the left ventricular systolic deformation that contribute to ventricular ejection. It is axiomatic that the spatial alignment of the actively contracting aggregates of myocytes must play a major role in

ECHOCARDIOGRAPHIC METHODS FOR ASSESSING LEFT VENTRICULAR SYSTOLIC FUNCTION
Polski Merkuriusz Lekarski, 2023 Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the recommended primary method of assessing cardiac function. The measurement of LVEF determines the strategy for treatment of patients, as well as influences their prognosis. 3D echocardiography has higher accuracy and reproducibility than 2D echocardiography; hence it is currently recommended for volume and ...

Left ventricular systolic function in aortic stenosis [PDF]
European Heart Journal, 1988 In aortic valve stenosis, concentric hypertrophy develops which is characterized by a reduced end-diastolic radius-to-wall thickness ratio (r/h) with an essentially normal cavity shape. As long as the product of (r/h) and LV systolic pressure remains constant, hypertrophy is appropriate.

مجلة المختار للعلوم, 2013 There is a common assumption that a normal electrocardiography rules out chronic heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). In this research work, an assessment of the value of electrocardiography in identifying patients with ...
