Association of ventricular dyssynchrony and strain with cardiac function in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) have impairments in cardiac mechanics (strain and dyssynchrony). However, the relationship between cardiac strain, dyssynchrony, and cardiac function (measured by ejection fraction) in patients with rTOF has not been explored comprehensively in a large population. We hypothesized that measures of cardiac mechanics are associated with cardiac function in patients with rTOF.

Introduction: In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...

Background: Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease. The systolic and diastolic function in both ventricles is altered even after successful corrective surgery for this defect with a transannular patch. Pulmonary regurgitation, a common complication after this treatment, is usually well tolerated in childhood. The aim of this study was to assess the combined dia...

BACKGROUND Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) suffer from progressive ventricular dysfunction decades after their surgical repair. We hypothesized that measures of ventricular strain and dyssynchrony would predict deterioration of ventricular function in patients with rTOF. METHODS A database search identified all patients at a single institution with rTOF who underwent cardiov...

BACKGROUND Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) have progressive, adverse biventricular remodeling, leading to abnormal contractile mechanics. Defining the mechanisms underlying this dysfunction, such as diffuse myocardial fibrosis, may provide insights into poor long-term outcomes. We hypothesized that left ventricular (LV) diffuse fibrosis is related to impaired LV mechanics. ME...
