PH is an uncommon condition and management of patients with PH during critical illness is largely based on experience, as data from randomised clinical trials in this specific population do not exist. At the acad...
متن کاملCirculation time determinations from the right ventricle.
The determination of the circulation time from the ventricle to the face using fluorescein and ultraviolet light eliminates all of the variable factors from the venous side of the circulation and gives evidence specifically of the presence or absence of an intraventricular right to left shunt. The most important clinical application is the differentiation of tetralogy of Fallot from pulmonary v...
متن کاملBuilding the right ventricle.
Abnormal development of the arterial pole of the heart underlies a significant fraction of congenital heart defects. Critical steps in arterial pole development are formation of the myocardial outflow tract (or conotruncal region) and its subsequent division into separate left and right ventricular outlets. Division of the cylindrical outflow tract is a complex morphogenetic process driven by c...
متن کاملLeft Ventricle: Role of the Pericardium and the Right Ventricle
IN CHRONIC CARDIAC DISEASE, the left ventricular diastolic pressure does not provide a reliable guide to the diastolic left ventricular volume,' and measurement of chamber volume, shape and wall thickness are necessary to identify changes in the myocardial stress-strain relation.' Under acute conditions, the stiffness of the left ventricular chamber progressively increases as passive diastolic ...
