Left ventricular systolic function

2020
Left ventricular systolic function assessment is an essential component of the echocardiographic assessment of the critically ill patient. A wide range of diseases from sepsis to coronary ischaemia can affect the left ventricle (LV). An understanding of the events and timings in LV systole within the cardiac cycle is important, together with an ...

Left Ventricular Systolic Function

2016
The estimation of left ventricular systolic function, both qualitative and quantitative, remains essential to the perioperative management of the cardiovascular status of the surgical patient. As a result of its portability and versatility, echocardiography is now widely used for this purpose (Lang et al. in European Journal of Echocardiography 7(2):79–

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 ...

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 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 and diastolic function in hyperthyroidism

American Heart Journal, 1982
In order to assess the effect of hyperthyroidism on systolic and diastolic function of the left ventricle, M-mode echocardiograms and systolic time intervals were obtained in 13 patients while they were clinically hyperthyroid and again when they were euthyroid following radioactive iodine therapy.

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.

Ventricular interdependence: Significant left ventricular contributions to right ventricular systolic function

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 1998
This article reviews diastolic and systolic ventricular interaction, and clinical pathophysiological conditions involving ventricular interaction. Diastolic ventricular interdependence is present on a moment-to-moment, beat-to-beat basis, and the interactions are large enough to be of physiological and pathophysiological importance.

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.
