Assessment of Right Ventricular Morphology and Function
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2003The assessment of right ventricular morphology and function is of clinical importance in patients with pulmonary disease. Until recently the evaluation of the right ventricle was difficult because of the unusual geometry of the right ventricle. This chapter discusses the various diagnostic modalities available for assessment of right ventricular ...

Right ventricular function in Chagas disease
International Journal of Cardiology, 1983To study right ventricular function, we performed cardiac catheterization, and right and left cineventriculograms in 60 chagasic patients and 15 non-chagasic, non-heart disease patients. Chagasic patients with normal electrocardiograms and left cineventriculograms also had normal right ventricular function.

Noninvasive Evaluation of Right Ventricular Function
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1987Numerous technologic advances have greatly facilitated the noninvasive analysis of right ventricular function. Nevertheless, important clues continue to be available to the astute clinician by physical examination. The chest x-ray is of rather limited utility.

Right-ventricular function by nuclear cardiology
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2010Right-ventricular (RV) function has both diagnostic and prognostic relevance; thus the ability to accurately evaluate and quantify the RV is critical. Nuclear techniques provide an accurate and reproducible assessment of RV systolic function. Additionally, nuclear techniques can assess RV physiology, thus providing insight into the pathogenesis of ...

Xenon alters right ventricular function
Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2008Background: In contrast to other volatile anesthetics, xenon produces less cardiovascular depression with fewer fluctuations of various hemodynamic parameters, but reduces cardiac output (CO) in vivo. Besides an increase in left ventricular afterload and reduction of heart rate, an impairment of the right ventricular function might be an additional ...

It is only relatively recently that acute right ventricular dysfunction has been recognised in critically ill patients and has been considered to be an important determinant of the overal effect of acute illnesses, especially respiratory failure, on the circulation.

Echocardiographic determination of right ventricular function
Cardiology in the Young, 2005With advances in surgical technique, more children with complex congenital heart disease are surviving.1 Increasingly, attention is focusing on late morbidities, such as right ventricular dysfunction.2 For many common forms of congenital cardiac malformations, the assessment of right ventricular size and function is now essential so as to make optimal ...

Thirty years ago, the right ventricle (RV) was considered to be little more than a conduit for blood flow between the peripheral venous circulation and the pulmonary arterial tree. The physiologic role of the RV systole has been revisited, especially because of the observations of acute cor pulmonale and RV infarction where the RV failure may be ...

Impact of right ventricular pacing on right ventricular function.
Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand = Chotmaihet thangphaet, 2012The benefits of right ventricular pacing in patients with symptomatic bradycardia are well recognized. Currently, left ventricular (LV) function after cardiac pacing has already been extensively investigated. However existing data on right ventricular (RV) function in these patients is extremely limited.To test this, records of RV and tricuspid valve ...
