Right ventricular dysfunction in advanced heart failure.
For many years cardiologists were not interested in studying right ventricular function and the role of the right ventricle in heart failure and in other disease states has therefore been largely underestimated. More recently a consensus has grown on the critical role of right ventricular function in patients with advanced congestive heart failure. The estimation of right ventricular function i...
متن کاملobvious or subclinical right ventricular dysfunction in diabetes mellitus (type ii): an echocardiographic tissue deformation study
background: diabetes mellitus is capable of impairing the myocardial function. several studies have documented the influential impact of diabetes mellitus on the left ventricular function. the right ventricular function plays a significant role in the overall myocardial contractility; hence, this study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of diabetes mellitus type ii on the right ventricular f...
متن کاملCoronary flow reserve correlates with right ventricular dysfunction and predicts right heart failure in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension
Figure 1 ROI Placement and Flow-Time-Curves. Phase contract MRI images of the CSF for a patient with scleroderma-associated PAH (mPAP 49 mmHg) during rest (top row: A, B) and adenosine-induced stress (bottom row: D, E). The red ROI is drawn around the coronary sinus, the blue ROI is placed in adjacent myocardium to correct for through-plane motion. The flow-time curves (C, F) demonstrate that n...
متن کاملRight Ventricular Dysfunction and Failure in Chronic Pressure Overload
Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is the main cause of death in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Our understanding of the pathophysiology of RV dysfunction is limited but improving. Methods to better diagnose RV dysfunction earlier and treatments specifically designed to minimize or reverse the remodeling process are likely to improve outcomes. We review the current understanding of RV d...
متن کاملApplication of centrifugal pump in right ventricular failure due to pulmonary artery hypertension. (A case report)
Background: It has not been yet developed a ost suitable method to treat right ventricular failure due to pulmonar artery hypertention resulted from ventricular arrhythia. Though some case reports about patients ready to heart transplant using left assist device or biventral assist device as bridge have been published in Journals, but nocase concerning application of centrifugal pump for treatm...
