Pulmonary vascular resistance in children with congenital heart disease.
Pulmonary and systemic blood flow and pulmonary vascular resistance were measured in 21 children with congenital heart disease. Blood flow was calculated by the direct Fick method, using measurements of metabolic gas exchange obtained by remote respiratory mass spectrometry. The observations showed that the administration of oxygen caused an appreciable fall in pulmonary vascular resistance in ...
متن کاملEvaluation of QRS, QTc, and JTc intervals in Congenital Heart Disease with Pulmonary Hypertension
Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) in congenital heart disease affects the patient’s prognosis. Prolonged QRS and QTc intervals in ECG may intensify life-threatening dysrhythmia in patients. We aimed to investigate the correlation between QRS, QTc, and JTc intervals prolongation in ECG with PH in Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) patients. Mate...
متن کاملEvaluation of QRS, QTC, JTC Intervals in Congenital Heart Disease with Pulmonary
BackgroundPulmonary hypertension (PH) in congenital heart disease (CHD) affects the patient prognosis. QRS and QTC intervals prolongation in ECG may exaggerate life-threatening dysrhythmia in these patients. We aimed to investigate the correlation between QRS, QTC and JTC intervals prolongation in ECG with PH in CHD children. Materials and MethodsIn a cross-sectional study tha...
متن کاملPulmonary vascular disease in adults with congenital heart disease.
Pulmonary arterial hypertension of variable degree is commonly associated with adult congenital heart disease. Depending on size and location of the underlying cardiac defect as well as on repair status, pulmonary arterial hypertension may present with or without reversed shunting and associated cyanosis (ie, Eisenmenger syndrome). We review available data on etiology, clinical presentation, pr...
متن کاملCalculation of differential pulmonary blood flow in patients with congenital heart disease using pulmonary artery flow versus pulmonary vein flow
Background Phase contrast magnetic resonance (PCMR) has been shown to provide accurate measurement of differential branch pulmonary artery (BPA) flow in patients with congenital heart disease when compared to the gold standard, lung perfusion scintigraphy (LPS). Although most studies have compared the ratio of net BPA flow volume (NFV) to LPS, one study found that forward flow volume (FFV) corr...
