Right Ventricular Dysfunction After Thrombolysis in Patients with Right Ventricular Infarction [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2000
Right ventricular (RV) infarction is frequently associated with highest risk of death and major complications. Doppler echocardiography can be useful in the diagnosis of RV involvement. The goal of this study was to evaluate Doppler echocardiography features associated with RV involvement and a poor prognosis.Two-dimensional Doppler echocardiography ...

Improvement of left ventricular systolic function after intervention on right ventricular hemodynamics

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology
Background: The importance of right–left ventricular interactions is increasingly recognized in patients with congenital heart disease. Interventions to improve right ventricular volume/pressure overloading may result in improvement of left ventricular ...

ACUTE RIGHT VENTRICULAR FAILURE

Вестник анестезиологии и реаниматологии, 2018
From the beginning of this century, clinicians started to pay more attention to the right ventricular dysfunction. It is related to the thorough studying of pathologies, during which the right ventricular dysfunction plays the key role, such as pulmonary

Levosimendan for patients with severely reduced left ventricular systolic function and/or low cardiac output syndrome undergoing cardiac surgery. a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Previous studies have shown beneficial effects of levosimendan in high-risk patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Two large randomized controlled trials (RCTs), however, showed no advantages of levosimendan.

Right Ventricular-pulmonary Arterial Coupling in Pulmonary Hypertension: Application Advances

Xiehe Yixue Zazhi, 2022
Prognosis in pulmonary hypertension is closely associated with right heart function. In the early stage of pulmonary hypertension, the right ventricle can maintain the normal blood flow of the pulmonary circulation by increasing its contractility. As the

A Case Report of Systemic Sclerosis Complicated by Biventricular Heart Failure, Pulmonary Hypertension and Review of Literature [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune connective tissue disorder whose aetiology is not fully understood. Skin fibrosis and visceral organs involvement are the hallmarks, and the heart could be disproportionately or subtly involved ...

Natriuretic peptide receptor C contributes to disproportionate right ventricular hypertrophy in a rodent model of obesity-induced heart failure with preserved ejection fraction with pulmonary hypertension

Pulmonary Circulation, 2019
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) currently has no therapies that improve mortality. Right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension are common in HFpEF, and thought to be driven by obesity and metabolic syndrome.

Assessment of right ventricular function by echocardiography in patients with chronic heart failure

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2018
Background: The main focus of most of the studies in heart failure (HF) is the assessment of the left ventricular functions, while the right ventricle was much less studied.
