Strain echocardiography in a sepsis‐induced cardiomyopathy

Clinical Case Reports, 2022
Sepsis‐induced cardiomyopathy represents a challenging disorder for critical care practitioners in terms of diagnosis, monitoring and treatment. Strain echocardiography may help to identify ventricular dysfunction at precocious stage in critically ill ...

Foetal Cardiac Function in Early Labour and Intrapartum Outcomes: A Prospective Observational Study

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To assess foetal myocardial deformation in normo‐oxygenated foetuses in early labour and its relationship with intrapartum outcomes. Design Single centre prospective study. Setting Referral tertiary maternity unit. Population Uncomplicated singleton term pregnancies in early labour.

Prognostic value of fetal growth and prenatal functional echocardiography in tetralogy of FALLOT

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
First demonstration that fetal growth and pulmonary peak velocity at third trimester are independent predictors of postnatal outcome in Tetralogy of Fallot. This may enhance the accuracy of prenatal counseling and facilitate more individualized planning for delivery and neonatal care. Abstract Introduction Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) shows variability in

How do I do it? Speckle-tracking echocardiography

Indian Heart Journal, 2013
Speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) is a recently developed technique for the characterization and quantification of myocardial deformation. By allowing measurement of the different components of myocardial deformation, it provides information which is not available with any of the currently used echocardiographic parameters, including left ...

Percutaneous Versus Surgical Cannulation for Femoro‐Femoral Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Retrospective Cohort Study on Cannulation‐Related Complications

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Percutaneous femoro‐femoral V‐A ECMO cannulation was associated with more than a two‐fold lower risk of site bleeding and nearly a six‐fold lower risk of infection compared with surgical cut‐down, with no difference in limb ischemia. Absence of distal perfusion catheterization and larger arterial cannula size were additional modifiable ischemia risk ...

Role of speckle tracking echocardiography in detecting early left atrial dysfunction in hypertensive patients

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2018
Background: Arterial hypertension adversely affects left atrial (LA) size and function, effect on function may precede effect on size. Many techniques were used to assess LA function but with pitfalls.

Sex differences in cerebral blood flow and cardiac function in response to exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the effect of exercising in hot conditions on cerebral blood flow and systolic left ventricular (LV) function in males and females, to explore sex differences. The experimental condition consisted of walking on a treadmill at 5 km/h and 2% incline, inside a heat chamber at 40°C (50% relative humidity), for 90 min.

SUBCLINICAL SYSTOLIC DYSFUNCTION OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE IN PREECLAMPTIC WOMEN WITHOUT PROTEINURIA. THE POSSIBILITIES OF ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY IN EARLY DIAGNOSIS

Медицинский совет, 2017
The article presents the main pathophysiological mechanisms associated with the development of complications of pregnancy against the background of arterial hypertension in patients without clinical manifestations of left ventricular dysfunction, the ...

Cardiopulmonary function in special operations forces compared to conventional infantry soldiers

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fitness is essential to military personnel in general, especially in the special operations forces (SOF), where the demanding tasks require a high level of physical fitness and mental robustness. However, little research has been done on SOF to characterise the putative underlying cardiopulmonary adaptations that distinguish them from ...

Speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with stroke

European Heart Journal, 2020
Abstract Introduction Global longitudinal strain (GLS) via speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) has emerged as a quantitative technique to estimate myocardial function and has been shown to have clinical utility in a variety of settings.
