Left Ventricle–Arterial System Interaction in Heart Failure
Ejection fraction (EF) has been viewed as an important index in assessing the contractile state of the left ventricle (LV). However, it is frequently inadequate for the diagnosis and management of heart failure (HF), as a significant subset of HF patients have been found to have reduced EF (HFrEF) whereas others have preserved EF (HFpEF). It should be noted that the function of the LV is depend...
متن کاملLeft ventricular dysfunction in patients with suspected pulmonary arterial hypertension*
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the role of right heart catheterization in the diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). METHODS We evaluated clinical, functional, and hemodynamic data from all patients who underwent right heart catheterization because of diagnostic suspicion of PAH--in the absence of severe left ventricular dysfunction (LVD), significant changes in pulmonary function tests, ...
متن کاملThe right ventricle in pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a right heart failure syndrome. In early-stage PAH, the right ventricle tends to remain adapted to afterload with increased contractility and little or no increase in right heart chamber dimensions. However, less than optimal right ventricular (RV)-arterial coupling may already cause a decreased aerobic exercise capacity by limiting maximum cardiac outpu...
متن کاملThe Importance of Electrocardiography in Pediatric Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in Follow- up
Background: Right Ventricular (RV) hypertrophy is an adaptive response to chronic RV pressure overload in patients with pulmonary hypertension. We investigated the relationships between RV hypertrophy indicators, including electrocardiography, the percentage oxygen saturation (SaO2%), body mass index (BMI), and blood uric acid levels in patients with...
متن کاملLeft ventricular interaction with arterial load studied in isolated canine ventricle.
We developed a framework of analysis to predict the stroke volume (SV) resulting from the complex mechanical interaction between the ventricle and its arterial system. In this analysis, we characterized both the left ventricle and the arterial system by their end systolic pressure (Ps)-SV relationships and predicted SV from the intersection of the two relationship lines. The final output of the...
