Prognostic importance of right ventricular dysfunction [PDF]
Heart, 2002 Although left ventricular ejection fraction is a powerful predictor of mortality following a myocardial infarction, in certain situations right ventricular ejection fraction may provide additional prognostic information When considering the entire range of left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEF) after a myocardial infarction, this parameter is a ...

Levosimendan, milrinone, and dobutamine in experimental acute pulmonary embolism
Pulmonary Circulation, 2021 Acute pulmonary embolism is a frequent condition in emergency medicine and potentially fatal. Cause of death is right ventricular failure due to increased right ventricular afterload from both pulmonary vascular obstruction and vasoconstriction ...

What role does the right side of the heart play in circulation? [PDF]
, 2006 Right ventricular failure (RVF) is an underestimated problem in intensive care. This review explores the physiology and pathophysiology of right ventricular function and the pulmonary circulation.

Right Ventricular Function, Peripheral Edema, and Acute Kidney Injury in Critical Illness
Kidney International Reports, 2017 The cardiorenal syndrome generally focuses on left ventricular function, and the importance of the right ventricle as a determinant of renal function is described less frequently. In a cohort of critically ill patients with echocardiographic measurements

Right ventricular dysfunction after resuscitation predicts poor outcomes in cardiac arrest patients independent of left ventricular function. [PDF]
, 2015 OBJECTIVE: Determination of clinical outcomes following resuscitation from cardiac arrest remains elusive in the immediate post-arrest period. Echocardiographic assessment shortly after resuscitation has largely focused on left ventricular (LV) function.

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023 BackgroundRight ventricular (RV) function is currently being evaluated solely according to the properties of RV myocardium. We have tested a concept that in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), RV assessment should ...
