Correlation between impedance cardiography and 6 min walk distance in atrial fibrillation patients
BACKGROUND The correlation between impedance cardiography (ICG) and 6 min walk distance (6MWD) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients remains unknown. METHODS We recruited 49 subjects in the study (21 AF patients and 28 patients without AF) and estimated hemodynamic parameters: cardiac output (CO), stroke volume (SV), stroke volume index (SVI), left stroke work (LSW), left stroke work index (LS...

متن کاملUse of transthoracic impedance cardiography and tissue Doppler echocardiography in the cardiovascular assessment of atrial fibrillation patients subjected to electroversion.
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the commonest complex cardiac arrhythmia, affecting approximately 2% of the general population. AIM To describe cardiovascular changes in tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE) and impedance cardiography (ICG) in AF patients subjected to cardioversion. METHODS Forty-one patients (22 males and 19 females) with acute or persistent AF were examined by mean...
متن کاملClinical correlation between the 6-min walk test andcardiopulmonary exercise testing in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.
BACKGROUND/AIM The aims of the present study were to assess the relationship between the distance walked during the 6-min walk test (6MWT) and exercise capacity as determined by cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and to investigate the prognostic value of the 6MWT in comparison to clinical parameters of CPET and echocardiography findin...
