Quantitative cardiovascular magnetic resonance in pregnant women: cross-sectional analysis of physiological parameters throughout pregnancy and the impact of the supine position
BACKGROUND There are physiological reasons for the effects of positioning on hemodynamic variables and cardiac dimensions related to altered intra-abdominal and intra-thoracic pressures. This problem is especially evident in pregnant women due to the additional aorto-caval compression by the enlarged uterus. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of postural changes on cardiac ...
متن کاملAnatomical configuration of the spinal column in the supine position. II. Comparison of pregnant and non-pregnant women.
To assess the changes in the curvature of the spinal column in the supine position during pregnancy, we studied seven pregnant (32-37 weeks of pregnancy) and seven non-pregnant women using magnetic resonance imaging. T1-weighted sagittal midline magnetic resonance images of the spinal column were obtained with subjects in the supine position with left tilt. There was no significant difference i...
متن کاملcardiac magnetic resonance imaging findings in a patient with ebstein’s anomaly and left ventricular dysfunction
ebstein anomaly is characterized by apical displacement of the septal and posterior tricuspid valve leaflets, leading to atrialization of the right ventricle and could be diagnosed in a routine transthoracic echocardiography exam. we reported a young man with right sided heart failure symptoms who was found to have biventricular failure with suspected apical displacement of septal leaflet of tr...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided pleural puncture in supine or recumbent lateral position - feasibility study
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to evaluate feasibility, safety and efficacy of accessing the pleural space with the patient supine or in lateral recumbent position, under constant ultrasonic guidance along the costophrenic sinus. METHODS All patients with pleural effusion, referred to thoracentesis or pleural drainage from February 2010 to January 2011 in two institutions, were drained e...
