Supra-Normal Left Ventricular Function

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2023
Heart failure (HF) is often categorized by left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF). A new category of HF characterized by supra-normal LVEF (>65%), named HF with supra-normal ejection fraction (HFsnEF), has been recently proposed. Some studies reported that patients with supra-normal LVEF might have an increased risk of long-term major adverse ...

Improved Left Ventricular Function After Chronic Left Ventricular Unloading

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1996
This study assessed the effect of prolonged left ventricular unloading on native ventricular function.We reviewed data from 31 patients (30 men, 1 woman) supported more than 30 days (mean, 137 days; range, 31 to 505 days) with the HeartMate left ventricular assist system.

[Left ventricular function].

Giornale italiano di cardiologia, 1994
TEE is widely used for intraoperative monitoring of global and regional left ventricular function during cardiac surgery. However, caution is necessary in assessing changes in left ventricular function before and after cardiopulmonary bypass because of the unequal loading conditions and the interference of catecholamine administration.

Left ventricular diastolic function

Critical Care Medicine, 2007
Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality resulting from congestive heart failure are major concerns for the critical care physician. Although heart failure is commonly associated with impaired systolic function, in up to one half of cases, heart failure occurs exclusively on the basis of an impairment of diastolic function.

Left ventricular function during sepsis

Critical Care Medicine, 1989
The prevalence and prognostic significance of left ventricular involvement in septic patients without shock was investigated. Systolic time intervals (STI) and preejection period/left ventricular ejection time ratio (PEP/LVET) were used to assess left ventricular function. Forty-nine patients, 22 of whom ultimately died, were studied.
