Assessment Of Response To Heart Failure Therapy: Ventricular Volume Changes Versus Shape Changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The prolate ellipsoid left ventricular geometry is crucial for its unique contraction and relaxation patterns. Perturbations in optimal cardiac function preceding overt heart failure ensue when this ellipsoid shape assumes a more spherical configuration.

A cortical potential reflecting cardiac function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Emotional trauma and psychological stress can precipitate cardiac arrhythmia and sudden death through arrhythmogenic effects of efferent sympathetic drive. Patients with preexisting heart disease are particularly at risk.

Highly Sensitive Cuffless Blood Pressure Monitoring with Selective Laser‐Sintered Liquid Metal Conductors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, compact, and cuffless system for continuous blood pressure monitoring using laser‐sintered liquid metal conductors is developed. The stretchability and sensitivity of the device enable real‐time, non‐invasive tracking of blood pressure, including recovery after exercise. This wearable device offers a practical solution for managing hypertension

The Effects Of Right Ventricular Apical Pacing On Left Ventricular Function: Stimulation Of The Right Ventricular Apex: Should It Still Be The Gold Standard?

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2003
Current pacing practice is undergoing continuous and substantial changes. Initially pacing had an exclusively palliative role, since it was reserved for patients developing complete heart block or severe symptomatic bradycardia.

The architecture of the left ventricular myocytes relative to left ventricular systolic function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Mural thickening, combined with longitudinal and circumferential shortening, and apical along with basal twisting are critical components of the left ventricular systolic deformation that contribute to ventricular ejection.

Echocardiographic Evaluation of Ventricular Function—For the Neonatologist and Pediatric Intensivist

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2018
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

Left Ventricular Endoaneurysmorrhaphy: Effect on Left Ventricular Size, Shape and Function

open access: yesCardiology, 1997
Left ventricular (LV) endoaneurysmorrhaphy is a relatively new surgical procedure with excellent results. Forty-five patients underwent surgical repair of LV aneurysm with LV endoaneurysmorrhaphy from 1991 to 1995. The main indication for operation was angina pectoris (71%). Concomitant myocardial revascularization was performed in 97% of the patients.

Engineering Topographical Cues to Enhance Neural Regeneration in Spinal Cord Injury: Overcoming Challenges and Advancing Therapies

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) poses significant challenges for regeneration due to a series of secondary injury mechanisms. How to use biomaterial approach to target the failed regeneration after SCI remains a critical challenge. This review systematically evaluates current strategies to optimize biomaterial topographies for neurite outgrowth, axonal ...

Prognostic significance of right ventricular ejection fraction for persistent complex ventricular arrhythmias and/or sudden cardiac death after first myocardial infarction: Relation to infarct location, size and left ventricular function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
To assess the prognostic significance of right ventricular dysfunction after a first myocardial infarction for complex ventricular arrhythmias and or sudden cardiac death in relation to infarct location, size and left ventricular function, a series of ...
