Left ventricular filling pressure was determined according to current guidelines using mitral inflow, mitral annular tissue Doppler, estimated right ventricular systolic pressure and left atrial ...

The authors hypothesized that Right Ventricular Systolic Pressure (RVSP) would significantly enhance the predictive capabilities of the Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalonia ...

Tello K, Wan J, Dalmer A, Vanderpool R, Ghofrani HA, Naeije R, et al. Validation of the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion/systolic pulmonary artery pressure ratio for the assessment of right ...

Medically reviewed by Angela Ryan Lee, MD Heart failure occurs when the heart can't pump blood as well as it should. It can affect either the left side of the heart (left-sided heart failure) or the ...

Background: The tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) is an indirect estimate of right ventricular-pulmonary arterial (RV-PA) coupling that ...

Right and left ventricular (RV/LV) diastolic filling involves rapidly changing flow in a chamber with geometry undergoing temporal changes in size and shape; the right ventricle is the most ...

BP = blood pressure; G = gradient; LA = left atrium; LAP = left atrial pressure; LV = left ventricle; LVOT = left ventricular outflow tract; LVSP = left ventricular systolic pressure; MR = mitral ...

2 Toyama Nishi General Hospital, Toyama, Japan Background: Influence of right ventricular diastolic function on the hemodynamics of heart failure (HF). We aimed to clarify the hemodynamic features of ...

Values and upper limits of pulmonary artery systolic pressure in selected large cohort studies of echocardiography and right heart catheterisation in healthy individuals Data are mean (SD) or median ...

Even levels of blood pressure that are generally considered “normal” may be high enough to foster the development of heart disease, new research shows.
