Independent evaluation of a simple clinical prediction rule to identify right ventricular dysfunction in patients with shortness of breath [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Many patients have unexplained persistent dyspnea after negative computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA). We hypothesized that many of these patients have isolated right ventricular (RV) dysfunction from treatable causes.

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

Endocrinology, 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 ...

Induction and deduction in sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy: five typical categories

Chinese Medical Journal, 2020
. Sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. The heart is one of the most important oxygen delivery organs, and dysfunction significantly increases the mortality of the body.

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

Indian 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 ...

Prevalence and prognostic value of various types of right ventricular dysfunction in mechanically ventilated septic patients

Annals of Intensive Care, 2021
Introduction Right ventricle (RV) dilation in combination with elevated central venous pressure (CVP), which is a state of RV congestion, is seen as a sign of RV failure (RVF).

Can Right Ventricular Branch Bypass Alleviate Right Ventricular Dysfunction?

Texas Heart Institute Journal, 2022
Background Right ventricle (RV) dysfunction after a coronary artery bypass grafting procedure is a challenge that adversely affects RV filling pressure and contraction. This study sought to determine whether additional bypass of an RV branch would lessen RV dysfunction.
