Right Ventricular Function, Peripheral Edema, and Acute Kidney Injury in Critical Illness
The cardiorenal syndrome generally focuses on left ventricular function, and the importance of the right ventricle as a determinant of renal function is described less frequently. In a cohort of critically ill patients with echocardiographic measurements

Sepsis-related cardiomyopathy: Not an easy task for ICU physicians
Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction is common. In addition to acute coronary syndrome, at least two types of left ventricular dysfunction can occur in septic patients: typical septic cardiomyopathy (SC) and sepsis-related takotsubo cardiomyopathy (ST).

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

Background Pulseless electrical activity (PEA) is a common initial rhythm in cardiac arrest. A substantial number of PEA arrests are caused by coronary ischemia in the setting of acute coronary occlusion, but the underlying mechanism is not well ...

Background: Using easy-to-determine bedside measurements, we developed an echocardiographic algorithm for predicting left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and longitudinal strain (LVLS) in patients with septic shock.

Unrecognised ventricular dysfunction in COPD [PDF]
While both chronic congestive heart failure (CHF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) impose a substantial disease burden and share aetiological and epidemiological associations, they have largely been studied separately. The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence and the prognostic implications of the coexistence of left ...
