Right Ventricular Function

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2017
The right ventricle (RV) is highly sensitive to increments of pressure overload. Both acute and chronic excessive pressure overloads lead to right ventricular (RV) maladaptation and subsequent RV failure, which is the main cause of death in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH).

Right ventricular function

Cardiology Clinics, 2002
This article describes the importance of the right ventricle in both the normal circulation, and in the abnormal milieu of previously palliated or corrected congenital heart disease. The latter group represents natural models of abnormal right ventricular loading that do not exist in any other experimental arena, and their study has provided insights ...

Right ventricular function by MRI

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2010
For years, the right ventricle (RV) has been deemed 'unnecessary', as shown by procedures such as Fontan surgery. More recently, right ventricular dysfunction has been recognized as a prognostic factor in many cardiovascular diseases. Supported by advances in echocardiography and MRI, assessment of right ventricular function and morphology has gained ...

Right Ventricular Function

2020
RV function is key in critically ill patients, especially when mechanically ventilated. Echocardiography is very suitable for the evaluation of RV function, allowing to easily appreciate the preload, the afterload, and the pericardium. Three views, with five parameters, are mandatory, by TTE or TEE: the RV outflow track (respiratory variation

Xenon alters right ventricular function

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2008
Background: In contrast to other volatile anesthetics, xenon produces less cardiovascular depression with fewer fluctuations of various hemodynamic parameters, but reduces cardiac output (CO) in vivo. Besides an increase in left ventricular afterload and reduction of heart rate, an impairment of the right ventricular function might be an additional ...

Assessment of right ventricular function

Heart, 2008
The right ventricle has traditionally received less consideration than the left ventricle. In recent years this interest has increased with the recognition of the critical role of right ventricular performance in determining the clinical outcome and decision-making in patients with both clinical heart failure and congenital heart disease.

Angiographic right and left ventricular function in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2004
We prospectively documented right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) volumes and ejection fractions in a large series of patients with arrhythmogenic RV dysplasia/cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C). Eighty-five patients with ARVD/C and 11 controls underwent 2 successive orthogonal right and left monoplane x-ray-digitized cineangiographies.
