Biventricular Conversion for Hypoplastic Left Heart Variants: An Update
Children, 2022 Ongoing concerns with single-ventricle palliation morbidity and poor outcomes from primary biventricular strategies for neonates with borderline left heart structures have led some centers to attempt alternative strategies to obviate the need for ...

Structure-based finite strain modelling of the human left ventricle in diastole [PDF]
, 2013 Finite strain analyses of the left ventricle provide important information on heart function and have the potential to provide insights into the biomechanics of myocardial contractility in health and disease. Systolic dysfunction is the most common cause

Left-ventricle myocardium segmentation using a coupled level-set with a priori knowledge [PDF]
, 2006 This paper presents a coupled level-set segmentation of the myocardium of the left ventricle of the heart using a priori information. From a fast marching initialisation, two fronts representing the endocardium and epicardium boundaries of the left ...

The univentricular heart: Revisited
Cirugía Cardiovascular, 2018 Introduction: A univentricular (UV) heart is found when both atria drain mainly into one ventricle; while if either ventricle cannot sustain the systemic or the pulmonary circulation, a functionally UV heart emerges. UV heart is the source of hot debates

Exercising with a Single Ventricle: Limitations and Therapies
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022 Treatment for Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) and other single ventricle conditions requires a series of surgical interventions for long-term survival, typically culminating in the Fontan procedure. The result is an abnormal circulatory physiology

Arrhythmias in children with a single ventricle
Бюллетень сибирской медицины, 2018 Aim. The paper presents prevalence and disturbances of cardiac rhythm and conduction in children with a single ventricle (SV) at different stages of hemodynamic defect correction. It also analyzes risk factors of arrhythmia.Materials and methods. A total

Material parameter identification for modelling the left ventricle in the healthy state [PDF]
, 2014 Includes bibliographical references.An idealized truncated ellipsoidal model, was used to simulate a healthy canine left ventricle. Passive behaviour of the myocardium was modelled using the constitutive model of Usyk.
