Echocardiography-derived left ventricular end-systolic regional wall stress and matrix remodeling after experimental myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVES We tested the hypothesis that regional end-systolic left ventricular (ESLV) wall stress is associated with extracellular matrix remodeling activity after myocardial infarction (MI). BACKGROUND Increased left ventricular (LV) wall stress is a stimulus for LV enlargement, and echocardiography can be used to estimate regional wall stress. A powerful validation of a noninvasive method ...
متن کاملAlterations of systolic left ventricular twist after acute myocardial infarction.
We sought to characterize the alterations of left ventricular (LV) twist after acute myocardial infarction in humans and to study their relationship to usual parameters of LV function. Systolic LV twist was measured by color tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE) in 34 patients after anterior myocardial infarction and in 20 controls. In a subset of controls and patients, the assessment of LV twi...
متن کاملLeft ventricular remodeling after acute myocardial infarction with microvascular obstruction
Accurate assessment of myocardial function and determinants of adverse functional outcome after acute myocardial infarction are essential in further therapeutic management of affected patients. Although echocardiography is most commonly used for this purpose, cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is emerging as an important diagnostic tool in the evaluation of ischemic heart disease. The adva...
متن کامل[Left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction].
Left ventricular remodeling describes a number of geometric and structural changes that the left ventricle undergoes after myocardial infarction. Briefly, it comprises expansion of the infarct and dilatation of the healthy left ventricular segments. Its severity is related to the infarct size. These changes in ventricular geometry, in particular the dilatation, influence the long-term incidence...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Remodeling After Myocardial Infarction
Left ventricular remodeling is the process by which ventricular size, shape, and function are regulated by mechanical, neurohormonal, and genetic factors.1,2 Remodeling may be physiological and adaptive during normal growth or pathological due to myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, hypertension, or valvular heart disease (Figure 1). This article will review postinfarction remodeling, pathoph...
