Tissue Doppler echocardiography in patients with long QT syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Echocardiography, 2003
Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a well-defined clinical entity associated with a high mortality among untreated patients. Tissue Doppler (TD) echocardiography that has been recently introduced, facilitates wall motion analysis. Therefore, to further characterize myocardial velocity abnormalities associated with LQTS, using TD and conventional ...

Practical approach to diastolic dysfunction in light of the new guidelines and clinical applications in the operating room and in the intensive care [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
There is growing evidence both in the perioperative period and in the field of intensive care (ICU) on the association between left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) and worse outcomes in patients.

Quantification of left ventricular longitudinal strain, strain rate, velocity and displacement in healthy horses by 2-dimensional speckle tracking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: The quantification of equine left ventricular (LV) function is generally limited to short-axis M-mode measurements. However, LV deformation is 3-dimensional (3D) and consists of longitudinal shortening, circumferential shortening, and radial ...

Heart Rate Recovery and Tissue Doppler Echocardiography in Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, 2010
AbstractBackgroundPrevious research has demonstrated the prognostic value of echocardiography with tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in the heart failure (HF) population. Heart rate recovery (HRR) has also recently shown promise as a prognostic marker.HypothesisWe hypothesize echocardiography with TDI and HRR will be significantly correlated and both will ...

Intracardiac Shunts and Role of Tissue Doppler Imaging in Diagnosis and Discrimination [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2008
Background: We sought to assess right ventricular (RV) systolic and diastolic functions via tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in order to discriminate right-to-left (bidirectional) from left-to-right intracardiac shunts.

Three-dimensional echocardiography and 2D-3D speckle tracking imaging in chronic pulmonary hypertension. diagnostic accuracy in detecting hemodynamic signs of RV failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background and objective. Our aim was to compare three-dimensional (3D) and 2D and 3D speckle tracking (2D-STE, 3D-STE) echocardiographic parameters with conventional right ventricular (RV) indexes in patients with chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH ...

Correlation between 2D Echocardiography and Multidetector Row CT for Early Detection of Diastolic Dysfunction in Normotensive Diabetic Patients [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Abnormalities in diastolic function are considered early signs of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Two dimensional echocardiography with Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI) has been used most commonly to evaluate diastolic left ventricular function ...

Echocardiography during submaximal isometric exercise in children with repaired coarctation of the aorta compared with controls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Objective Patients with repaired coarctation (RCoA) remain at higher risk of cardiac dysfunction, initially often only detected during exercise. In this study, haemodynamics of isometric handgrip (HG) and bicycle ergometry (BE) were compared in patients ...
