The ventricular septum: the lion of right ventricular function, and its impact on right ventricular restoration☆ [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-thoracic Surgery, 2006
To evaluate the structure-function relationships of the right ventricle (RV) and septum and determine if the helical ventricular band model would define fiber orientation for maximal force response. Implications were made for right ventricular function.The right ventricular free wall and biventricular septum were studied by inserting sonomicrometer ...

Effect of Different Components of Metabolic Syndrome on Right Ventricular Volume and Function [PDF]

open access: yesZagazig University Medical Journal, 2022
Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (Met. S.) is an association of multiple cardiovascular risk factors which consists of insulin resistance, diabetes or impaired glucose metabolism, central obesity, hypertriglyceridemia and low level of high-density ...

Assessment of Right Ventricular Function With CT and Echocardiography in Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

open access: yesCritical Care Explorations, 2021
Objectives:. Changes in right ventricular size and function are frequently observed in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. The majority of patients who receive venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation undergo chest CT and ...

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 ...

Right Ventricular Function

open access: yesJapanese Circulation Journal, 1974
A review was made of 69 cases manifesting congestive right-side heart failure among 1, 910 cases who had undergone cardiac catheterization at the Department of Pediatrics, Tenri Hospital. Hemodynamic and angiographic studies were made in 32 cases which had undergone corrective surgery of tetralogy of Fallot at ages between l to 14 more than 2 years ...

Levosimendan, milrinone, and dobutamine in experimental acute pulmonary embolism

open access: yesPulmonary 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 ...

Describing right ventricular function [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2013
In pulmonary hypertension and other conditions, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome and left heart failure, right ventricular dysfunction is a prognostic determinant. Therefore, functional parameters pertaining to the right heart alone,i.e.independent of its loading conditions, should be used to quantify right ventricular disease progression ...

Impact of Right Ventricular Trabeculation on Right Ventricular Function in Patients With Left Ventricular Non-compaction Phenotype

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Right ventricular (RV) involvement in left ventricular (LV) non-compaction (LVNC) remains unknown. We aimed to describe the RV volumetric, functional, and strain characteristics and clinical features of patients with LVNC phenotype and good LV ejection ...

Assessment of right ventricular function in patient with chronic renal failure on regular dialysis by echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yesZagazig University Medical Journal, 2021
Background:In recent years, the assessment of right ventricular function by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) has been established as a common approach to detect preclinical abnormalities of cardiac function and has also been proposed as a reliable predictor ...
