Evaluation of Right Ventricular Function

Current Cardiology Reports, 2011
Right ventricular (RV) function is a powerful prognostic factor in congestive heart failure and pulmonary hypertension, but assessing RV function is a challenge because of the right ventricle's complex geometry, its extreme sensitivity to loading conditions, and a limited understanding of underlying mechanisms of right heart failure.

Ventricular function in the newborn lamb

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1965
The present study was initiated with the objective of evaluating in the newborn those aspects of ventricular mechanics which form the basis of the Frank-Starling relation, and which permit a determination of changes in the inotropic state of the heart.

Assessment of right ventricular function

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2009
To emphasize the importance and clinical implications of right ventricular function assessment in many situations encountered by intensivists and to explain in practical terms how to perform such an assessment at the bedside.Assessment of right ventricular function requires a full understanding of the physiology of the right ventricle.

MRI of left ventricular function

Journal of Nuclear Cardiology, 2007
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is widely recognized as the most accurate noninvasive imaging modality for the assessment of left ventricular (LV) function. By use of state-of-the-art magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners, electrocardiography (ECG)-gated cine images depicting LV function with high contrast and excellent spatial and ...

[Ventricular function in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Systolic and diastolic ventricular function].

Fortschritte der Medizin, 1992
BASIC CONSIDERATION: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is defined as a primary myocardial disease associated with a hypertrophic non-dilated left ventricle with no other heart or systemic disease that might lead to hypertrophy of the left ventricle. The leading symptoms are effort-associated angina and dyspnea, rapid fatigue, dizziness and syncope.The ...

[Evaluation of ventricular function in the fetus].

Giornale italiano di cardiologia (2006), 2009
Congenital heart disease is the most frequent neonatal malformation, with an estimated prevalence between 0.8% and 1%. Echocardiography is an important tool for diagnosis and follow-up in cardiology, because it is easy to use, inexpensive, and noninvasive.
