Right heart failure after left ventricular assist device: From mechanisms to treatments
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy is a lifesaving option for patients with medical therapy-refractory advanced heart failure. Depending on the definition, 5–44% of people supported with an LVAD develop right heart failure (RHF), which is ...

Left ventricular heart failure and pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
In patients with left ventricular heart failure (HF), the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction are frequent and have important impact on disease progression, morbidity, and mortality, and therefore warrant ...

Right ventricular reserve post mitral valve repair is associated with heart failure hospitalization
Right ventricular impairment is a predictor of cardiovascular outcomes in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation. However, the time course of right ventricular functional changes post-surgical mitral valve repair remains largely unknown. Herein,

Acute right ventricular failure
Acute right ventricular (RV) failure is a serious clinical challenge not only in cardiology intensive care but in adult critical care in general. It is related not only to left ventricular failure but also to a number of other causes of pulmonary ...

Usefulness of regional right ventricular and right atrial strain for prediction of early and late right ventricular failure following a left ventricular assist device implant: A machine learning approach [PDF]
Background: Identifying candidates for left ventricular assist device surgery at risk of right ventricular failure remains difficult. The aim was to identify the most accurate predictors of right ventricular failure among clinical, biological, and ...

ACUTE RIGHT VENTRICULAR FAILURE
From the beginning of this century, clinicians started to pay more attention to the right ventricular dysfunction. It is related to the thorough studying of pathologies, during which the right ventricular dysfunction plays the key role, such as pulmonary

Emerging hemodynamic signatures of the right heart (Third International Right Heart Failure Summit, part 2) [PDF]
Despite the importance of preserved right ventricular structure and function with respect to outcome across the spectrum of lung, cardiac, and pulmonary vascular diseases, only recently have organized efforts developed to consider the pulmonary vascular ...

Review Article: Management of Perioperative Anesthesia in Right Heart Failure
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 ...
