Case report: Acute right ventricular dysfunction after surgery in a pregnant patient with congenital heart disease and aortic dissection

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Pregnant women with aortic dissection are hemodynamically outmost complex patients. The two major diagnoses that should be considered in pregnant patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) and acute type A aortic dissection presenting with ...

Pulmonary artery stiffness in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) and emphysema: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) COPD Study [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and particularly emphysema are characterized by stiffness of the aorta, due in part to accelerated elastin degradation in the lungs and aorta. Stiffness of the pulmonary arteries (PAs) may also be

Prognostic importance of right ventricular dysfunction [PDF]

Heart, 2002
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 ...

Review Article: Management of Perioperative Anesthesia in Right Heart Failure

Folia Medica Indonesiana, 2018
Right ventricular dysfunction and failure receive much less attention than the left ventricular failure. Right ventricular dysfunction or failure is associated with increased mortality rates in cardiac surgery, surgical cases other than cardiac surgery ...

Right Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction after Marathon Run [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020
It has been raised that marathon running may significantly impair cardiac performance. However, the post-race diastolic function has not been extensively analyzed. We aimed to assess whether the marathon run causes impairment of the cardiac diastole, which ventricle is mostly affected and whether the septal (IVS) function is altered. The study included

Right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension: a neglected presentation of thyrotoxicosis

Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2018
Thyrotoxicosis is associated with cardiac dysfunction; more commonly, left ventricular dysfunction. However, in recent years, there have been more cases reported on right ventricular dysfunction, often associated with pulmonary hypertension in patients ...

Right ventricular global dysfunction score: a new concept of right ventricular function assessment in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF)

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundRight ventricular (RV) function is currently being evaluated solely according to the properties of RV myocardium. We have tested a concept that in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), RV assessment should ...

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

, 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 ...

Study of clinical, radiological and echocardiographic features and correlation of Qanadli CT index with RV dysfunction and outcomes in pulmonary embolism

Indian Heart Journal, 2014
Background: There are no Indian studies correlating the CT pulmonary embolism index (Qanadli) with right ventricular function and outcome. In the present study we aimed to study the clinical manifestations of patients presenting with acute pulmonary ...
