Correlation between tissue Doppler-derived left ventricular systolic velocity (S’) and left ventricle ejection fraction in sepsis and septic shock: a retrospective cohort study
BackgroundTissue Doppler-derived left ventricular systolic velocity (mitral S’) has shown excellent correlation to left ventricular ejection fraction...
-
Coronary slow flow and its correlation with reduced left ventricle global longitudinal strain: a case–control study
BackgroundCoronary slow flow (CSF) often links to inflammation and endothelial function disturbance. While conventional ejection fraction...

The D-SPECT SH reconstruction protocol: improved quantification of small left ventricle volumes
BackgroundDue to spatial resolution limitations, conventional NaI-SPECT typically overestimates the left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) in...

Soft tissue displacement for detection of left ventricle apical dyskinesis with transthoracic echocardiography
We tested the hypothesis that the use of outward displacement of the soft tissue between the apex and the chest wall as seen in TTE, is a sign of...

Durable ventricular assist device in adult patients with single ventricle: a systematic literature review
The worldwide experience with mechanical circulatory support in adult patients with single ventricle and Fontan palliation is limited. We aimed to...

Mid-Term Outcome of Left Ventricle Reverse Remodeling After Atrial Septal Defect Closure: A Comparison Between Surgical and Device Groups
Right ventricular (RV) volume overload occurs in patients with significant atrial septal defect (ASD II) shunts, which can impair left ventricle (LV)...
-
A simple algorithm for differential diagnosis in hemodynamic shock based on left ventricle outflow tract velocity–time integral measurement: a case series
Echocardiography has gained wide acceptance among intensive care physicians during the last 15 years. The lack of accredited formation, the long...

A Left ventricle remodeling in patients with bicuspid aortic valve
PurposeWe assessed the impact of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), aortic stenosis (AS), and regurgitation (AR) on the metrics of left ventricular (LV)...
