Echocardiographic [correction of Ehocardiographic] evaluation of regional left atrial function after rapid atrial pacing.
Rapid regular atrial pacing (RAP) produces changes in atrial function similar to those caused by atrial fibrillation in animal models. Left atrial appendage (LAA) function represents regional atrial function. The aim of our study was to investigate the influence of RAP on left atrial regional function and to evaluate the reversibility of changes after termination of pacing in a canine model. Ei...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function
Approximately half of patients with a diagnosis of heart failure have a normal left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) without valve disease which is defined as diastolic heart failure (DHF), because it is attributed to LV diastolic dysfunction.[2] Studies examining prevalence of diastolic heart failure in hospitalized patients or in patients undergoing outpatient diag‐ nostic screening an...

متن کاملMurine Left Atrium and Left Atrial Appendage Structure and Function: Echocardiographic and Morphologic Evaluation
Aim of this study was to provide an echocardiographic protocol for the description of the normal murine venous reservoir (atrium, appendage and pulmonary veins) and to investigate the possibility to use this approach to discriminate changes on left atrium (LA) and left atrial appendage (LAA) in a stress-induced model such us myocardial infarction. Global left ventricular function and the venous...

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...
