Induction and deduction in sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy: five typical categories

Chinese Medical Journal, 2020
. Sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. The heart is one of the most important oxygen delivery organs, and dysfunction significantly increases the mortality of the body.

Can Right Ventricular Branch Bypass Alleviate Right Ventricular Dysfunction?

Texas Heart Institute Journal, 2022
Background Right ventricle (RV) dysfunction after a coronary artery bypass grafting procedure is a challenge that adversely affects RV filling pressure and contraction. This study sought to determine whether additional bypass of an RV branch would lessen RV dysfunction.

Prevalence and prognostic value of various types of right ventricular dysfunction in mechanically ventilated septic patients

Annals of Intensive Care, 2021
Introduction Right ventricle (RV) dilation in combination with elevated central venous pressure (CVP), which is a state of RV congestion, is seen as a sign of RV failure (RVF).

Evaluation of right ventricular function performed by 3d-echocardiography in scleroderma patients [PDF]

, 2015
The impairment of the right ventricle (RV) in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is usually related to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). New echocardiographic techniques, such as 3-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) and 2-dimensional speckle tracking (2DSTE),

Independent evaluation of a simple clinical prediction rule to identify right ventricular dysfunction in patients with shortness of breath [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Many patients have unexplained persistent dyspnea after negative computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA). We hypothesized that many of these patients have isolated right ventricular (RV) dysfunction from treatable causes.

Right Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic Function Profile in Patient with Stable Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Jurnal Penyakit Dalam Indonesia, 2016
Introduction. Right ventricular dysfunction is one of the common complication of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Right ventricular assessment is importance, since it related with exercise intolerance and poor prognosis. Methods.

Right ventricular function among South East Nigeria children with sickle cell anaemia

BMC Pediatrics, 2020
Background Sickle cell anaemia (SCA) is characterized by attendant ischemia-reperfusion injury especially to the heart. Methods The aim of this work is to compare the right ventricular function of children with SCA in steady state (subjects) with those ...
