A Novel Approach to Standard Techniques in the Assessment and Quantification of the Interventricular Systolic Relationship [PDF]
Background Blood flow between the right and left ventricles is subject to the continuity equation and systolic ventricular interdependence. Quantification of this relationship might aid in understanding inter-ventricular function. The purpose

Left atrial size in patients with arterial hypertension [PDF]
INTRODUCTION Left atrial size is increased in patients with arterial hypertension. Left atrial enlargement represents a risk factor of atrial fibrillation and stroke. Left atrial size depends on the effect of many other etiological factors, predominantly

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
