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

open access: yesChinese 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.

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

open access: yesAnnals 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).

Right Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic Function Profile in Patient with Stable Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesJurnal Penyakit Dalam Indonesia, 2016
Introduction. Right ventricular dysfunction is one of the common complication of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Right ventricular assessment is importance, since it related with exercise intolerance and poor prognosis. Methods.

Right ventricular volumes and function in thalassemia major patients in the absence of myocardial iron overload [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Aim: We aimed to define reference ranges for right ventricular (RV) volumes, ejection fraction (EF) in thalassemia major patients (TM) without myocardial iron overload.Methods and results: RV volumes, EF and mass were measured in 80 TM patients who had ...
