Acquired right ventricular dysfunction [PDF]
Right ventricular (RV) function may be impaired either by primary right sided heart disease, or secondary to left sided cardiomyopathy or valvar heart disease. Two dimensional echocardiography is the mainstay for analysis of RV function. A detailed description of echocardiographic approaches for assessment of RV function is provided elsewhere.1 This ...

Background: The prognostic value of right ventricular systolic dysfunction in high-risk patients undergoing non-emergent open abdominal surgery is unknown. Here, we aim to evaluate whether presence of preexisting right ventricular systolic dysfunction in

Aortic stenosis and right ventricular dysfunction
AbstractAt the present time, right ventricular function in patients with aortic stenosis is insufficiently taken into account in the decision-making process of aortic valve replacement. The aim of our study was to evaluate significance of right ventricular dysfunction in patients with severe aortic stenosis by modern 3D echocardiographic methods.

Prognostic importance of right ventricular dysfunction [PDF]
Although left ventricular ejection fraction is a powerful predictor of mortality following a myocardial infarction, in certain situations right ventricular ejection fraction may provide additional prognostic information When considering the entire range of left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEF) after a myocardial infarction, this parameter is a ...

Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is the most important determinant of survival in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). The manifestations of RV dysfunction not only include changes in global RV systolic function but also abnormalities in the ...

Levosimendan, milrinone, and dobutamine in experimental acute pulmonary embolism
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 ...

The current classification of heart failure (HF) based on left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) identifies a large group of patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) with significant morbidity and mortality but without prognostic benefit ...
