Function of the Right Ventricle
2021It is becoming increasingly clear that the right ventricle plays an important role in the circulatory system. Especially in disease states, right ventricular (RV) function may be of great importance. As such, knowledge on RV function in both health and disease is essential for clinicians. This chapter provides current available knowledge on RV function,

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2008
Right ventricular dysfunction is common in sepsis and septic shock because of decreased myocardial contractility and elevated pulmonary vascular resistance despite a concomitant decrease in systemic vascular resistance. The mainstay of treatment for acute right heart failure includes treating the underlying cause of sepsis and reversing circulatory ...

Double-chambered right ventricle masquerading as bipartite right ventricle
Cardiology in the Young, 2021AbstractA 10-day-old neonate with pulmonary consolidation was referred for echocardiography to rule out CHD. At first glance, the morphology appeared to be a bipartite right ventricle with normal tricuspid and pulmonary valves. In-depth analysis, however, of the images showed a double-chambered right ventricle, in which the inlet and outlet portions of

Imaging of the Right Ventricle
Cardiology Clinics, 2012For many years, the right ventricle (RV) was considered less relevant in cardiac disease than its left counterpart, partly because of limited ability to noninvasively evaluate the RV with accuracy. From an earlier period when chest x-ray and invasive contrast ventriculography were the only available imaging modalities, the development of ultrasound and

Assessment of the Right Ventricle
2019Right ventricular (RV) size and function have been found to be important predictors of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with various clinical conditions. However, assessment of the RV using conventional two-dimensional echocardiography is a challenging task due to the complex anatomy and the location of the RV in the chest.

Rupture of the Right Ventricle
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1968A rupture of the right ventricle was associated with isolated myocardial infarction of this ventricle. According to a review of the medical literature, this is a rare condition, most ruptures of the right ventricle either being traumatic in origin or following extensive infarction of the left ventricle or interventricular septum or both of the latter.

Abstract Clinical and necropsy findings are described in a 56 year old man who was found to have multiple rocks in the right ventricular cavity and a congenitally narrowed infundibulum. The size, distribution and location of the rocks in the right ventricle appear unique. Possible causes of the rocks in the heart are speculated upon.

The right ventricle: knowing what is right
The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2008An Editorial for the article: Accuracy of Guideline Recommendations for Two-dimensional Quantification of the Right Ventricle by Echocardiography—By Lai et al. In an interesting article in this journal Lai et al. [1] highlight the limitations of comparing echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance in assessing right ventricular function according ...

RADIOLOGY OF THE RIGHT VENTRICLE
Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1999RV changes may be generalized into dilatation and hypertrophy. Increased preload results in ventricular dilatation. Increased afterload causes hypertrophy. Change in the shape of the RV resulting from increased afterload and myocardial hypertrophy induces tricuspid regurgitation, which superimposes changes of chamber dilatation onto those of ...

The right ventricle (RV) is responsible for accepting venous blood and propelling it to the lungs where it is oxygenated and its CO2 eliminated. Under normal conditions, at rest and during exercise, the pressure required by the RV to maintain the cardiac output (CO) is modest. The functional significance of the RV in sustaining circulatory homeostasis,
