Myocardial Dysfunction in Septic Shock
Survey of Anesthesiology, 1985Myocardial depression is a major but poorly understood component of septic shock. This study investigates the morphologic and biochemical abnormalities associated with septic shock. Myocardial cells are incubated in normal and septic plasma in a nutrient-, oxygen-, pH-, electrolyte-, and temperature-controlled environment.

Postresuscitation myocardial dysfunction in a dog
Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, 2012AbstractObjectiveTo describe a clinical case of postresuscitation myocardial dysfunction in a dog.Case SummaryAn 11‐month‐old, 2.37 kg female spayed Chihuahua was referred for management post CPR after suffering cardiopulmonary arrest. Postresuscitation a gallop rhythm was identified and an echocardiogram revealed severe left ventricular dilation and ...

MYOCARDIAL DYSFUNCTION IN SEPSIS
Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1998SUMMARY1. Sepsis is the leading reversible cause of death in patients requiring modern intensive care services.2. In this group of patients, death usually results from progressive multiple organ failure, rather than overwhelming primary infection.3. The pathophysiology of sepsis‐induced remote organ dysfunction is incompletely understood, although it ...

Pathomechanisms of Myocardial Dysfunction in Sepsis
Endocrine, Metabolic & Immune Disorders - Drug Targets, 2010Sepsis remains one of the leading causes of death in intensive care units. Progressive cardiovascular failure is an important cause of the mortality. Septic patients with myocardial dysfunction have significantly higher mortality compared with patients without cardiovascular impairment.

Postresuscitation myocardial dysfunction
Cardiology Clinics, 2002Postresuscitation myocardial dysfunction is common after prolonged cardiac arrest and can have life-threatening consequences. Experimental data suggest that systolic and diastolic left ventricular function can be adversely effected following successful resuscitation.

Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction
Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2018Purpose of review Sepsis leads to a complex intramyocardial inflammatory response that results in sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction. Here, recent findings are reviewed in a physiologic context. Recent findings Decreased systolic contractility during sepsis limits ventricular ...

Myocardial dysfunction in the patient with sepsis
Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2002The nature of myocardial dysfunction during sepsis and septic shock has been investigated for more than half a century. This review traces the evolution of scientific thought regarding this phenomenon during this period with particular emphasis on the current understanding of both the clinical manifestations and the molecular/cellular basis of septic ...

Myocardial Dysfunction in Hypothyroid Children
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1983Eleven children with primary hypothyroidism were studied by echocardiography. Eight patients had pericardial effusion. Systolic time intervals (preejection period-ejection time ratio and left ventricular isovolumic contraction time) were suggestive of abnormal myocardial function.

Markers of Myocardial Injury and Dysfunction
AACN Clinical Issues: Advanced Practice in Acute and Critical Care, 2004Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is defined as the spectrum of diagnoses from angina to sudden cardiac death caused by ischemic coronary artery disease. Although cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death of adults in the United States, the ability to diagnose ACS is not always definitive.

Diastolic dysfunction and myocardial energetics
European Heart Journal, 1990Myocardial relaxation is an energy-dependent process. Indeed, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is required to pump free myoplasmic calcium back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It is also necessary to extrude the calcium ions which enter the cell during the plateau phase of the action potential.
