Objectives:. Changes in right ventricular size and function are frequently observed in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. The majority of patients who receive venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation undergo chest CT and ...

BackgroundRight ventricular (RV) function is currently being evaluated solely according to the properties of RV myocardium. We have tested a concept that in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), RV assessment should ...

Importance of Cx43 for Right Ventricular Function [PDF]
In the heart, connexins form gap junctions, hemichannels, and are also present within mitochondria, with connexin 43 (Cx43) being the most prominent connexin in the ventricles. Whereas the role of Cx43 is well established for the healthy and diseased left ventricle, less is known about the importance of Cx43 for the development of right ventricular (RV)

Levosimendan, milrinone, and dobutamine in experimental acute pulmonary embolism
Acute pulmonary embolism is a frequent condition in emergency medicine and potentially fatal. Cause of death is right ventricular failure due to increased right ventricular afterload from both pulmonary vascular obstruction and vasoconstriction ...

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 ...

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 ...

Right ventricular (RV) involvement in left ventricular (LV) non-compaction (LVNC) remains unknown. We aimed to describe the RV volumetric, functional, and strain characteristics and clinical features of patients with LVNC phenotype and good LV ejection ...

Predicting post-operative right ventricular failure using video-based deep learning [PDF]
Non-invasive and cost effective in nature, the echocardiogram allows for a comprehensive assessment of the cardiac musculature and valves. Despite progressive improvements over the decades, the rich temporally resolved data in echocardiography videos remain underutilized. Human reads of echocardiograms reduce the complex patterns of cardiac wall motion,
