The influence of Asthma on Right Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic Function in Children according to Tissue Doppler Echocardiography
Introduction:Asthma is the most common chronic inflammatory condition affecting the lower airways among children. Asthma may influence right ventricular (RV) function and patients may develop right ventricular hypertrophy, pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale. The main objective of this study is to determine RV dysfunction in asymptomatic asthmatic children as detected by ti...
متن کاملRight Ventricular Outflow Tract Systolic Excursion and Fractional Shortening for the Assessment of Right Ventricular Function
Dear Sir, The report on “Right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) systolic excursion (SE) and fractional shortening (FS)” is very interesting.[1] Allam et al. raised an interesting question, “Can these echocardiographic parameters be used for the assessment of right ventricular (RV) function?” Clinically, RV function assessment is useful for initial assessment, diagnosis, and follow-up of the pat...
متن کاملRight ventricular systolic function in hypertensive heart failure
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is a major cause of cardiovascular admissions and hypertensive heart failure (HHF) is the most common cause of HF admissions in sub-Saharan Africa, Nigeria inclusive. Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is being increasingly recognized in HF and found to be an independent predictor of adverse outcomes in HF. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of RV systoli...
متن کاملRight ventricular systolic function in peripartum and dilated cardiomyopathies.
AIMS Right ventricular (RV) systolic function of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) has not previously been well described and compared with that of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The aim of the present study was therefore to assess and compare RV systolic function between PPCM and idiopathic DCM, using tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE). METHODS AND RESULTS The study was cross s...
