A Novel Approach to Standard Techniques in the Assessment and Quantification of the Interventricular Systolic Relationship

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2011
Background Blood flow between the right and left ventricles is subject to the continuity equation and systolic ventricular interdependence. Quantification of this relationship might aid in understanding inter-ventricular function.

Assessment of Right Ventricular Function With CT and Echocardiography in Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Critical Care Explorations, 2021
Objectives:. Changes in right ventricular size and function are frequently observed in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. The majority of patients who receive venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation undergo chest CT and ...

The effects of low‐dose anthracycline‐based chemotherapy on the levels of serum NT‐proBNP level and left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunctions: A prospective observational study

Health Science Reports, 2022
Background and Aims The present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between serum N‐terminal (NT)‐pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels and incidence of left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic dysfunction in patients who underwent low‐dose

The Value of Mitral valve E point septal separation as an index of assessment of left ventricular systolic function

Advanced Medical Journal, 2022
Background and objectives:  There are several methods of assessment of left ventricular function utilizing M-mode echocardiography, the most popular one being geometrically derived ejection fraction, for which its validity is compromised in case of ...

Right ventricular systolic function and cardiac resynchronization therapy

Cardiology Plus, 2019
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction on the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and the impact of CRT on RV function in a beagle model of heart failure (HF).

Cardiac recovery and outcome of neonates and infants presenting with severe aortic coarctation and depressed cardiac function

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2018
Objectives: Coarctation of the aorta represents 5–8% of all congenital heart diseases. Children with severe coarctation of the aorta may present with significant depression of myocardial function.

Aortic root movement correlation with the function of the left ventricle

Scientific Reports, 2021
Echocardiographic assessment of systolic and diastolic function of the heart is often limited by image quality. However, the aortic root is well visualized in most patients.

Left ventricular diastolic function in hypertension: relation to left ventricular mass and systolic function

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1984
Initial studies of diastolic cardiac function in hypertension demonstrated that slowing of the maximal rate of left ventricular filling occurred before alterations in either ejection fraction or cardiac output. The present study was undertaken to determine: 1) the relation between hypertension, increased left ventricular mass and impaired left ...
