Echocardiography and Heart Failure: A Glimpse of the Right Heart
Echocardiography, 2014The catastrophic consequences for patients in the settings of certain clinical conditions such as acute right ventricular infarction or massive pulmonary embolism with right heart failure illustrate the essential role that the right ventricle plays in sustaining life. With the development of more sophisticated diagnostic imaging technologies at the end

Most discussions of heart failure (HF) focus on the left ventricleand its dysfunction. The right heart is, of course, commonlyaffected in HF, both by the same disease processes as affect the leftheart, and as a consequence of left heart disease. The right heartitself is much less commonly affected in isolation, but patients withheart disease do ...

Cardiac output is determined by the efficient left and right ventricular performance; therefore, one should always see the right ventricle as an important integral part of the overall cardiac pump function. A strong evidence supporting the role of the right ventricle in determining exercise tolerance as well as clinical outcome in patients with heart ...

Heart Failure: Right-Sided Heart Failure.
FP essentials, 2021When evaluating patients for left-sided heart failure (HF), physicians should consider right-sided HF as well. There is significant crossover in symptoms, and these conditions frequently are seen together. Common causes of acute right-sided HF include pulmonary embolism and hypoxemia.

Right Heart Failure After Thoracoplasty
Diseases of the Chest, 1948SUMMARY 1)We have presented two cases of right heart failure with chronic pulmonary tuberculosis with associated thoracoplasty and permanent phrenic paralysis. 2)While the theoretical considerations for such an association have been given, no definite causal relationship could be postulated.

Right heart failure may result from dysfunctional right ventricular (RV) myocardium, excessive load imposed on the right ventricle during systole and/or diastole, or obstruction to RV inflow. The clinical expression of right heart failure is similar regardless of cause, and is mediated via a combination of elevated systemic venous pressure and ...

Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a frequent and formidable clinical challenge in the intensive care unit, the operating room, the general ward, and the outpatient setting. The presence of RVF (1) carries substantial morbidity and mortality and (2) complicates the use of commonly employed treatment strategies in both inpatients and outpatients.

The Assessment of the Right Heart Failure Syndrome
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2015The right heart failure (RHF) syndrome is a pathophysiologically complex state commonly associated with dysfunction of the right ventricle (RV). The normal RV is suited for its purposes of distributing venous blood to the low-resistance pulmonary circulation. Myriad stresses imposed upon it, though, can ultimately result in its failure, with the threat

Right heart failure: lights and shadows
Minerva Cardiology and AngiologyRight heart function is essential for overall heart health and plays a crucial role in the prognosis of patients with heart failure. A comprehensive assessment of the right ventricle (RV) that includes various clinical and hemodynamic parameters, as well as imaging techniques, provides important insights into the structure and function of the right ...
