Echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular function.
The concept of "normalized velocity" has been applied in this study to the echocardiographic (echo) assessment of left ventricular (LV) function in 87 patients. The following normalized velocities were calculated from the ultrasound recording of LV wall motion: 1) the mean circumferential fiber shortening rate (mean VCF), 2) the mean normalized posterior wall velocity (Vpw), and 3) the mean nor...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Assessment of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function
J Echocardiogr Vol.6, No.3, 2008 57 The concepts for the assessment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function were established in the cardiac catheterization laboratory and necessitate the use of high fidelity pressure and conductance catheters. The most recent [1] set of criteria (Figure 1) for diagnosing diastolic heart failure (DHF) include the presence of increased LV filling pressures (m...
متن کاملTechniques for comprehensive two dimensional echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular systolic function.
T he quantitation of left ventricle (LV) volumes and ejection fraction is an important aspect of cardiac evaluation in all cardiac disorders. Prognosis in many types of heart disease is closely related to global left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), falling off rapidly as the ejection fraction falls below 40% (fig 1). However, although ejection fraction has the advantage of being a simple ...
متن کاملDoppler echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular systolic and diastolic function in mild hypertension.
Abnormalities in left ventricular (LV) wall thickness and mass have been demonstrated in patients with mild hypertension utilizing M-mode echocardiography. In addition, studies using radionuclide angiography have demonstrated abnormalities in early diastolic LV filling in asymptomatic hypertensive patients with normal ejection fraction and cardiac output. Recently, Doppler recordings of flow ve...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Evaluation of left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation
Extended abstract Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an important, leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) as well as in renal transplant recipients. Cardiovascular complications become more important in children because of the i...
