Prognostic importance of right ventricular dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 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 ...

Right Ventricular Function, Peripheral Edema, and Acute Kidney Injury in Critical Illness

open access: yesKidney 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

A New Parameter for Predicting Right Ventricular Dysfunction in Pulmonary Embolism: Immature Granulocytes

open access: yesVan Tıp Dergisi, 2023
INTRODUCTION: Pulmonary embolism is an urgent health problem and causes high morbidity and mortality when diagnosis is delayed. In addition, detecting the severity of the disease early and starting appropriate treatment prevents complications and ...

Review Article: Management of Perioperative Anesthesia in Right Heart Failure

open access: yesFolia Medica Indonesiana, 2018
Right ventricular dysfunction and failure receive much less attention than the left ventricular failure. Right ventricular dysfunction or failure is associated with increased mortality rates in cardiac surgery, surgical cases other than cardiac surgery ...

Case report: Acute right ventricular dysfunction after surgery in a pregnant patient with congenital heart disease and aortic dissection

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Pregnant women with aortic dissection are hemodynamically outmost complex patients. The two major diagnoses that should be considered in pregnant patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) and acute type A aortic dissection presenting with ...

Right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension: a neglected presentation of thyrotoxicosis

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2018
Thyrotoxicosis is associated with cardiac dysfunction; more commonly, left ventricular dysfunction. However, in recent years, there have been more cases reported on right ventricular dysfunction, often associated with pulmonary hypertension in patients ...

Obese subjects show sex-specific differences in right ventricular hypertrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
As right ventricular (RV) remodeling in obesity remains underinvestigated, and the impact of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction on RV hypertrophy is unknown, we aimed to investigate whether (1) sex-specific patterns of RV remodeling exist in ...

Study of clinical, radiological and echocardiographic features and correlation of Qanadli CT index with RV dysfunction and outcomes in pulmonary embolism

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2014
Background: There are no Indian studies correlating the CT pulmonary embolism index (Qanadli) with right ventricular function and outcome. In the present study we aimed to study the clinical manifestations of patients presenting with acute pulmonary ...

Right ventricular global dysfunction score: a new concept of right ventricular function assessment in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF)

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...
