Transthoracic three-dimensional echocardiography for the assessment of straddling tricuspid or mitral valves [PDF]
Background The advent of 3D echocardiography has provided a technique which, potentially, could afford significant additional information over conventional cross-sectional echocardiography in the assessment of patients with straddling atrioventricular ...

Building the Right Ventricle [PDF]
See related article, pages 1000–1007 Abnormal development of the arterial pole of the heart underlies a significant fraction of congenital heart defects. Critical steps in arterial pole development are formation of the myocardial outflow tract (or conotruncal region) and its subsequent division into separate left and right ventricular outlets ...

The Right Ventricle in ARDS [PDF]
ARDS is associated with poor clinical outcomes, with a pooled mortality rate of approximately 40% despite best standards of care. Current therapeutic strategies are based on improving oxygenation and pulmonary compliance while minimizing ventilator-induced lung injury.

Congenital tunnel‐shaped ventricular septal defect
Key Clinical Message We report a 47‐year‐old man who presented with right‐sided heart failure. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a tunnel‐shaped communication (ventricular septal defect) between the left ventricle and the right ventricle with a ...

Up-regulation of hexokinase1 in the right ventricle of monocrotaline induced pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a proliferative arteriopathy associated with a glycolytic shift during heart metabolism. An increase in glycolytic metabolism can be detected in the right ventricle during PAH.

Where is the right ventricle? [PDF]
A 20-year-old man with no history of known cardiac disease was admitted with dyspnoea on exertion during a few weeks. His effort capacity was class I. At physical examination, his blood pressure was 120/70 mm Hg and pulse 80 bpm. His physical examination and ECG were unremarkable.

Assessment of left ventricle preload by transthoracic echocardiography: an easy task? [PDF]
In sicker hearts, right atrial pressure (an estimation of right ventricle preload) are not equivalent to left atrial pressure (an estimation of left ventricle preload).

By-passing the Right Ventricle.
Summary1. An anastomosis was made between the right atrial appendage and the main pulmonary artery.2. In acute experiments, the venous pressure was demonstrated to drive venous return through the lungs without benefit of the pumping action of the right ventricle.3. In chronic experiments, the anastomosis acts similarly to a tricuspid insufficiency.
