Electromechanical correlation of leftatrial function after cardioversion.
To study the left atrial function after cardioversion, left ventricular apex cardiogram, electrocardiogram, unipolar and bipolar oesophageal electrocardiogram, and cardiac catheterization were done after 39 procedures in 37 patients with rheumatic heart disease and 2 with atrial septal defect. An 'a' wave in the apex cardiogram representing left atrial contraction appeared in 31 of the 32 recor...
متن کاملAtrial and ventricular function after cardioversion of atrial fibrillation.
OBJECTIVE Previous studies on atrial recovery after cardioversion of atrial fibrillation have not taken into account new knowledge about the pathophysiology of transmitral and transtricuspid flow velocity patterns. It is possible to shed further light on this problem if atrioventricular inflow velocity, venous filling pattern, and atrioventricular annulus motion are recorded and interpreted tog...
متن کاملLeft ventricular diastolic function after electrical cardioversion of atrial fibrillation.
In chronic atrial fibrillation (AF) left ventricular function may gradually diminish as a result of an intrinsic tachycardiomyopathy. This tachycardia induced cardiomyopathy is characterised by decreased systolic function, ventricular dilation, and raised ventricular filling pressures. In such patients left ventricular systolic function may gradually improve after electrical cardioversion. Litt...
متن کاملSerum enzyme activities after cardioversion.
Serum aspartate aminotransferase (SGOT), alanine aminotransferase (SGPT), creatinine phosphokinase (CPK), and butyric acid dehydrogenase (BDH) were determined in 94 patients before, 1(1/2) hours, and 24 hours after cardioversion. An increase in SGOT and CPK activity was observed 24 hours after cardioversion in the group of patients treated with two or more DC shocks. The importance of this enzy...
متن کاملinterpersonal function of language in subtitling
translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...
