Right ventricular dysfunction

Current Opinion in Internal Medicine, 2007
Until recently the right ventricle's role in myocardial dynamics has not been fully appreciated. This article provides an overview of the pathophysiology, imaging and management of right ventricular dysfunction.That levosimendan may promote right ventricular function opens new avenues for treatment.

Ischemic right ventricular dysfunction

Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 1994
For many years ischemic heart disease involving the right ventricle had received little attention. During the last 15 years, the initial works of Cohn, Isner, and others spawned a number of clinical and experimental studies that extended the understanding of the pathophysiology of ischemia in the right ventricle.

Perioperative right ventricular dysfunction

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2013
To evaluate new information on the importance of right ventricular function, diagnosis and management in cardiac surgical patients.There is growing evidence that right ventricular function is a key determinant in survival in cardiac surgery, particularly in patients with pulmonary hypertension.

Ventricular compliance in ischemic right ventricular dysfunction

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1980
Ischemic right ventricular dysfunction was diagnosed in 54 patients with acute myocardial infarction who had a right atrial pressure disproportionately increased in relation to the pulmonary capillary pressure. The right atrial pressure curve in 40 patients (74 percent) was M- or W-shaped, termed a noncompliant pattern, and was similar to the pattern ...

Right Ventricular Dysfunction after Endocardiectomy for Right Ventricular Endomyocardial Fibrosis

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1984
Early right ventricular failure following a large endocardiectomy in right endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF) is reported. This diagnosis was confirmed upon echocardiography by the presence of a dilated right ventricle, and hemodynamically (upon postoperative control catheterization) by the presence of right ventricular diastolic dysfunction.

Right Ventricular Dysfunction Due to Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Patch

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2006
Doppler tissue imaging analysis was used to examine the relationship between right ventricular function and right ventricular outflow tract damage in 54 patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot. The patients were divided into three groups: 16 in whom the right ventricular outflow tract was directly sutured (group DS), 23 who had transventricular ...

Right ventricular dysfunction in septic patients

Critical Care Medicine, 1992
To compare right ventricular ejection fraction in trauma and septic patients during the hyperdynamic circulatory phase of these states.Prospective, consecutive study.University hospital ICU.Eleven trauma patients (group 1) and ten septic patients (group 2) were studied.

Right ventricular dysfunction in acute ventricular septal defect

American Heart Journal, 1981
Eight patients with acute ventricular septal defect (VSD) receiving early intra-aortic balloon augmentation, cardiac catheterization, and open-heart surgery are described. Because of the large shunts in this group of patients, there was visualization of the right ventricle during left ventriculography which was adequate for qualitative analysis.

Predominant right ventricular dysfunction after right ventricular destruction in the dog

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1974
Abstract Right and left ventricular function was assessed by observing the response to rapid blood volume expansion before and after extensive cauterization of the right ventricle in open chest dogs. In the control period, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure surpassed right ventricular end-diastolic pressure by an average of 11.5 mm Hg after ...
