Echocardiographic Evaluation of Ventricular Function—For the Neonatologist and Pediatric Intensivist
In the neonatal and pediatric intensive care setting, bedside cardiac ultrasound is often used to assess ventricular dimensions and function. Depending upon the underlying disease process, it is necessary to be able to evaluate the systolic and diastolic

Describing right ventricular function [PDF]
In pulmonary hypertension and other conditions, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome and left heart failure, right ventricular dysfunction is a prognostic determinant. Therefore, functional parameters pertaining to the right heart alone,i.e.independent of its loading conditions, should be used to quantify right ventricular disease progression ...

Left ventricular systolic function in dogs with pulmonic stenosis [PDF]
Background and Aim: Pulmonic stenosis (PS) is the most common congenital heart disease in dogs. This condition causes right ventricle (RV) overload and disrupts overall systolic function.

Bi-ventricular assessment with cardiovascular magnetic resonance at 5 Tesla: A pilot study
BackgroundCardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging at ultra-high fields (UHF) such as 7T has encountered many challenges such as faster T2* relaxation, stronger B0 and B1+ field inhomogeneities and additional safety concerns due to increased ...

The heart in congenital diaphragmatic hernia: Knowns, unknowns, and future priorities
There is growing recognition that the heart is a key contributor to the pathophysiology of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), in conjunction with developmental abnormalities of the lung and pulmonary vasculature.

A review was made of 69 cases manifesting congestive right-side heart failure among 1, 910 cases who had undergone cardiac catheterization at the Department of Pediatrics, Tenri Hospital. Hemodynamic and angiographic studies were made in 32 cases which had undergone corrective surgery of tetralogy of Fallot at ages between l to 14 more than 2 years ...
