Systolic left ventricular long axis function during dobutamine stress echocardiography.
AIMS To compare long-axis function and wall motion analysis for the detection of significant coronary artery stenoses in patients with single and multivessel disease. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed dobutamine stress echocardiography in 67 subjects, 14 with normal coronary anatomy, and 53 with significant coronary disease. A blunted increase in mean long-axis shortening of <0.25 cm was the b...
متن کامل[Left ventricular free wall rupture during dobutamine stress echocardiography].
Dobutamine stress echocardiography is associated with a very low rate of serious complications, lower than 0.5% (death, infarction or sustained ventricular tachycardia). We report the case of a 75 year-old female patient that suffered a fatal left ventricular free wall rupture during a dobutamine stress echocardiography after acute myocardial infarction.
متن کاملChanges in left ventricular diastolic filling patterns by Doppler echocardiography in cystic fibrosis.
The onset of cor pulmonale is a common terminal finding in patients with cystic fibrosis. Since Doppler echocardiography can detect changes in diastolic filling patterns prior to the onset of either systolic dysfunction or clinical symptoms, we utilized this technique to determine whether detectable changes in left ventricular diastolic filling patterns exist in patients with cystic fibrosis. A...
متن کاملChanges in left ventricular stroke volume measured by Doppler echocardiography.
Cardiac stroke volume was measured simultaneously by Doppler echocardiography and thermodilution in 20 patients with coronary artery disease. Stroke volume as determined by ultrasound was calculated from the area of the aortic orifice and the flow velocity just distal to the aortic cusps. The recordings were made twice at rest. Ten patients were given dobutamine (2.5 and 5.0 micrograms/kg/min) ...
متن کاملCoronary Artery Spasm During Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography: A Case Report
Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) has been widely used as a diagnostic and prognostic modality in the management of stress. DSE is associated with limited complications and adverse effects on the health of patients. In this case report, we described a 42-year-old female patient with dobutamine-induced coronary artery spasm with history of exertional dyspnea, which had deteriorated recent...
