Evaluation 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 کاملLeft Ventricular Wall Motion
The effects of sublingual nitroglycerin (GTN) on left ventricular wall motion (LVWM) were examined by angiographic assessment in eight patients with anginal chest pain. Five of seven patients having occlusive coronary artery disease showed segmental abnormalities in LVWM characterized by regional hypokinesis or akinesis at rest. These abnormalities were accentuated by tachycardia induced by atr...

متن کاملVentricular wall stress.
SUMMARY Quantification of ventricular wall stress is necessary for an understanding of both normal and pathological ventricular mechanics. At present there are no reliable means to measure, directly, wall stresses in the intact ventricle. Thus, we must rely on mathematical models to predict these stresses, knowing that the predictions cannot be validated directly. Since each model employs certa...
متن کاملVentricular free wall rupture.
BACKGROUND Left ventricular free wall rupture (FWR) is reported to occur in 2-6% of cases presenting with acute myocardial infarction. Mortality of this complication is very high, accounting for 20-30% of all infarct related deaths. The objective of our study was to present our surgical experience of free wall rupture over a period of five years from 2004-2009. METHODOLOGY A review of our rec...
