TCT 866: Regional Left Intraventricular Systolic Pressure Gradients (IVPG) in the Nonobstructive Ventricle and Potential Impact on Invasive and Echo Aortic Valve Gradients ...

The authors discuss the mechanisms, clinical presentation, and evaluation of right ventricular failure, as well as its management.

This video presents a practical method for conducting visual, semiquantitative assessment of right ventricular size and systolic function with focused cardiac ultrasonography.

Right ventricular pressure-volume (PV) analysis characterizes ventricular systolic and diastolic properties independent of loading conditions like volume status and afterload. While long-considered ...

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 ...

Open in Viewer Figure 1. Functional adaptation of the right ventricle (RV) to the different degrees of left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction in patients with left-sided heart disease: ...

Right ventricular systolic function evaluated through VO2 max is a more accurate measure of functional capacity of persons with heart failure compared with left ventricular systolic function.

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

Doctors use both end-diastolic volume and end-systolic volume to calculate stroke volume. End-systolic volume is the amount of blood remaining in the ventricle at the end of systole, after the ...

Doctors use end-diastolic volume and end-systolic volume to determine stroke volume, or the amount of blood pumped from the left ventricle with each heartbeat.
