Left Ventricular Volumes
DEVELOPMENT of a satisfactory method for quantifying left ventricular chamber volumes in man has provided an opportunity to assess changes of volume that occur as a result of diseases of the aortic and mitral valves.1-3 These studies provide data concerning the relationships among chamber volume, stroke volume, and filling pressure of the left ventricle in patients with valvular heart disease.
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Dimensions and Volume
The accuracy of determining left ventricular function from echocardiography was assessed in 26 children (group I) with cineangiographically-determined normal left ventricular volume (LVV) and 28 children (group II) with large left ventricular volumes. Conventional LV echo dimensions were compared to the cineangiographic LV anterior-posterior minor axis (LVmA) and LVV. Very good correlations wer...
متن کاملLeft atrial volumes and associated stroke subtypes
BACKGROUND Cardio embolism and cerebrovascular atherosclerosis are two major mechanisms of stroke. Studies investigating associations between advanced echocardiographic parameters and stroke mechanisms are limited. METHODS This study is a standardized review of 633 patients admitted to the stroke service of a tertiary care hospital following a standardized stroke investigation and management ...
متن کاملVENTRICULAR PERFORMANCE Left ventricular filling dynamics : influence of left ventricular relaxation and left atrial pressure
Peak rapid filling rate (PRFR) is often used clinically as an index of left ventricular relaxation, i.e., of early diastolic function. This study tests the hypothesis that early filling rate is a function of the atrioventricular pressure difference and hence is influenced by the left atrial pressure as well as by the rate of left ventricular relaxation. As indexes, we chose the left atrial pres...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Volumes and Ejection Fraction
Left ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic volume, stroke volume, and ejection fraction were determined by biplane angiocardiography and echocardiography in 27 patients suspected of having heart disease. Angiographic volumes were calculated by the area-length method and echocardiographic volumes, from the left ventricular dimension of the echograms. The angiographic minor diameter and the ...
