The tricuspid valve in hypoplastic left heart syndrome: Echocardiography provides insight into anatomy and function

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is commonly seen in surgically palliated patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, and when significant, is associated with an increase in both morbidity and mortality.

Compensated right ventricular function of the onset of pulmonary hypertension in a rat model depends on chamber remodeling and contractile augmentation. [PDF]

, 2018
Right-ventricular function is a good indicator of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) prognosis; however, how the right ventricle (RV) adapts to the pressure overload is not well understood.

The Variation in the Diastolic Period with Interventricular Septal Displacement and Its Relation to the Right Ventricular Function in Pulmonary Hypertension: A Preliminary Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Study

Diagnostics, 2022
Background: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is known to alter the biventricular shape and temporal phases of the cardiac cycle. The presence of interventricular septal (IVS) displacement has been associated with the severity of PH.

The Role of Hand-Held Cardiac Ultrasound in Patients with COVID-19

Biomedicines, 2023
The role of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in patient management has been established in recent years as an important tool. It is increasingly used by multiple medical disciplines in numerous clinical settings, for different applications and diagnostic

FastVentricle: Cardiac Segmentation with ENet

, 2017
Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging is commonly used to assess cardiac structure and function. One disadvantage of CMR is that post-processing of exams is tedious. Without automation, precise assessment of cardiac function via CMR typically requires

Relationship of right ventricular functions with in-hospital and 1 year later mortality in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 pneumonia

Annals of Thoracic Medicine
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to determine the association of right ventricular function with in-hospital mortality and mortality 1 year after discharge in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 pneumonia.

Echocardiographic Evaluation of Ventricular Function—For the Neonatologist and Pediatric Intensivist

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2018
In the neonatal and pediatric intensive care setting, bedside cardiac ultrasound is often used to assess ventricular dimensions and function. Depending upon the underlying disease process, it is necessary to be able to evaluate the systolic and diastolic

Physiological basis in the assessment of myocardial mechanics using speckle-tracking echocardiography 2D. Part I [PDF]

Journal of Ultrasonography, 2016
In this paper, the authors attempt to concisely present the anatomical and pathophysiological bases as well as the principles for echocardiographic evaluation of mechanical aspects of cardiac function based on speckle tracking method. This technique uses

Autonomic regulation therapy to enhance myocardial function in heart failure patients: the ANTHEM-HFpEF study. [PDF]

, 2017
BackgroundApproximately half of the patients presenting with new-onset heart failure (HF) have HF with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF) and HF with mid-range left ventricular ejection fraction (HFmrEF).
