چکیده

Background Right Atrial Volume Indexed (RAVI) measured by echocardiogram was identified to be an independent predictor of morbidity in patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Meta-Analysis Global Group in Chronic heart failure (MAGGIC) risk score is a robust tool in predicting mortality in HF patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate RAVI by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging as an independent predictor of all-cause mortality in patients with HFrEF and to compare it with the validated risk score

The Correlation between Left and Right Ventricular Ejection Fractions in Patients with Ischemic Heart Disease, Documented by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Introduction: The correlation between right and left ventricular ejection fractions (RVEF and LVEF, respectively) has been studied in only a small number of patients with a marked decrease in RVEF and LVEF. The aim of the present study was to compare LVEF and RVEF in patients with ischemic heart disease. RVEF and LVEF were measured by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging. Materials a...

Right atrial volume by cardiovascular magnetic resonance predicts mortality in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction

BACKGROUND Right Atrial Volume Index (RAVI) measured by echocardiography is an independent predictor of morbidity in patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The aim of this study is to evaluate the predictive value of RAVI assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) for all-cause mortality in patients with HFrEF and to assess its additive contribution to the va...

Right ventricular Hemodynamic Alteration after Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Children with Congenital Heart Disease

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...

Echocardiographic Parameters and Survival in Chagas Heart Disease with Severe Systolic Dysfunction

BACKGROUND Echocardiography provides important information on the cardiac evaluation of patients with heart failure. The identification of echocardiographic parameters in severe Chagas heart disease would help implement treatment and assess prognosis. OBJECTIVE To correlate echocardiographic parameters with the endpoint cardiovascular mortality in patients with ejection fraction < 35%. METH...
