Left atrial dysfunction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a combined assessment by speckle tracking and real-time three-dimensional echocardiography
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: At present, little research concerning the assessment of left atrial (LA) dysfunction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) using a combined by speckle tracking (STE) and real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) is available. The objective this study was to evaluate LA volume function STE RT3DE OSA.

Evaluation of left atrial volume and function in systemic sclerosis patients using speckle tracking and real-time three-dimensional echocardiography
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate left atrial (LA) volume and functions using real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) and speckle tracking in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients. METHODS The study was designed as a cross-sectional observational study. We studied 41 consecutive SSc patients (38 females, mean age: 49.5±11.6 years) and 38 healthy controls (35 fema...
متن کاملDetermination of right ventricular dysfunction using the speckle tracking echocardiography method in patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
BACKGROUND The speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) method shows the presence of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction before the advent of RV failure and pulmonary hypertension in patients with cardiopulmonary disease. We aimed to assess subclinical RV dysfunction in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) using the STE method. METHOD Twenty-one healthy individuals and 58 OSA patients were included. A...
متن کاملSpeckle tracking echocardiography in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and overlapping obstructive sleep apnea
BACKGROUND COPD and congestive heart failure represent two disease entities of growing global burden that share common etiological features. Therefore, we aimed to identify the degree of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in COPD as a function of COPD severity stages and concurrently placed particular emphasis on the presence of overlapping obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS A total of 85 ...

OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate whether fragmented QRS (fQRS) is associated with subclinical left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 141 patients with OSA who had normal LV ejection fraction (LVEF) were included in the study. The fQRS was defined as the presence of an additional R wave, notching of R or S wave or the ...
متن کاملAssessment of left atrial function by three-dimensional speckle-tracking in cardiomyopathies: A step forward?
The main role of the left atrium (LA) is to modulate left ventricular filling through its three phasic functions: reservoir, passive conduit, and active contraction. Assessment of left atrial strain is feasible and can be used to categorize diastolic dysfunction. Structural and functional analysis of the LA can reveal a wide range of pathophysiological alterations occurring in response to speci...
