arrhythmia in acute right ventricular infarction
acute inferior myocardial infarction (mi) frequently involves the right ventricle (rv).1-3 we assessed the prognostic impact of rv myocardial involvement in patients with inferior mi. one hundred seventy patients were admitted to the cardiac care unit of madani heart hospital (tabriz-iran) with the diagnosis of inferior mi with (group1) or without (group2) the simultaneous involvement of rv dur...
متن کاملAcute Inferior Myocardial Infarction with Right Ventricular Involvement resembling Acute
On admission the physical examination was normal with a blood pressure of 130/90 mmHg. The initial electrocardiogram (Figure 1A) showed sinus rhythm with convex-upwards ST segment elevation (transmural injury) decreasing from V1 to V3 and acute inferior myocardial infarction pattern with Q waves and ST segment elevation of transmural injury in leads III and aVF. The patient was medicated with a...
متن کاملThe 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 کاملMyocardial damage of the entire ventricular region in a patient with acute myocardial infarction
Technetium-99m-pyrophosphate (99mTc-PYP) has been used, in combination with thallium-201, to estimate the site and extent of myocardial infarcts. We report a case of acute myocardial infarction with severe coronary disease in which the distribution of 99mTc-PYP was extensive. A 78-year-old man presented with dyspnea, and a diagnosis of non-ST-segment elevation acute myocar...
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...
