Right ventricular assessment by tissue-Doppler echocardiography in acute pulmonary embolism.
BACKGROUND Assessment of the right ventricular (RV) function by echocardiography in patients with pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) is complex and frequently qualitative. Tissue Doppler has been used for the semiquantitative assessment of this chamber, although with some limitations. OBJECTIVE To evaluate RV function in PTE using tissue-Doppler echocardiography, in addition to atrial natriureti...
متن کاملEvaluation of Right Ventricular Function by Tissue Doppler Echocardiography in Asthmatic Children
BackgroundAsthma is the most chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways in children and asthmatic patients can experience cardiac dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension and finally cor pulmonale later in life. We aimed to investigate Right Ventricular (RV) functions in asthmatic children by conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE).Materials and Methods Pulmonary function tests, con...
متن کاملCardiac imaging in pulmonary embolism: assessment of right ventricular dysfunction by tissue Doppler.
O tromboembolismo pulmonar (TEP) é uma entidade relativamente frequente no contexto de urgência hospitalar, com uma elevada taxa de mortalidade e morbilidade quando não tratado precocemente, continuando a representar um desafio diagnóstico na prática clínica diária, sendo a sua apresentação clínica nem sempre esclarecedora, especialmente no contexto agudo1. A mortalidade de doentes por TEP nos ...

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...
