Left Ventricular Size after Acute Myocardial Infarction
The distance from the midline to the left heart border measured in a standardized manner on calibrated chest roentgenograms was determined serially in 125 patients after acute myocardial infarction. This external left heart dimension (LHD) was compared to the normal value, and its prognostic value was assessed during early and late follow-up periods (average 10, range 2-31 months). Within 96 ho...
متن کاملTransient left ventricular systolic dysfunction mimicking myocardial infarction after pericardiocentesis
A 69-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of weight loss and progressively worsening dyspnoea. Her previous medical history was unremarkable. She was admitted to the internal medicine department. A cardiologist was consulted because of atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and an enlarged cardiac silhouette on her chest Xray. On physical examination her blood pressu...
متن کاملAssessment of left ventricular systolic and diastolic function by tissue Doppler imaging after acute myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate left ventricular systolic and diastolic function by Tissue Doppler imaging after acute myocardial infarction. METHODS It was a hospital based, prospective descriptive study, from 1st July 2010 to 31st Dec. 2010. Total of 200 patients having acute myocardial infarction underwent detailed tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) echocardiographic examination for evaluation of left ven...
متن کاملEvolution of abnormalities in left ventricular function after acute myocardial infarction.
Twelve patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were studied by left ventricular (LV) catheterization, echocardiography, and volume manipulation (tourniquets, phlebotomy, and dextran infusion) within 24 hours of infarction (study 1) and 3 weeks later (study 2). Three patients also were studied 6-10 months later (study 3). Cardiac index rose (from 2.50 to 3.15 liters/min/m2) and right atr...
متن کاملAlterations of systolic left ventricular twist after acute myocardial infarction.
We sought to characterize the alterations of left ventricular (LV) twist after acute myocardial infarction in humans and to study their relationship to usual parameters of LV function. Systolic LV twist was measured by color tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE) in 34 patients after anterior myocardial infarction and in 20 controls. In a subset of controls and patients, the assessment of LV twi...
