Left ventricular mechanical efficiency in man with heart disease.
Thirty-eight adults with valvular and/or myocardial disease had heart catheterization with coronary blood flow and myocardial O2 consumption (MVO2) per 100 g measured by the nitrous oxide washout technique. Quantitative biplane angiocardiography was performed to assess left ventricular volume, mass, ejection fraction and work. Left ventricular efficiency was calculated from work, MVO2/100 g and...
متن کاملEffects of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Rehabilitation on Left Ventricular Mechanical Efficiency and Ventricular‐Arterial Coupling in Patients With Systolic Heart Failure
BACKGROUND Success of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is generally assessed by the objective improvement in peak volume of inhaled oxygen (VO2) measured by cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPX). However, cardiac mechanical efficiency and ventricular-arterial coupling (VAC) are the other important dimensions of the heart failure pathophysiology, which are not included in CPX-derived data. The effect o...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Reconstruction in Ischemic Heart Disease
Objectives: [1] To review our experience with left ventricular reconstruction (LVR) regarding safety (early mortality and morbidity) and long-term survival (Study I). [2] To evaluate LVR including surgery for ventricular tachycardia in patients with preoperative spontaneous or inducible ventricular tachycardia (Study II). [3] To analyze risk factors for mortality and hospital re-admission for h...
متن کاملRight ventricular Hemodynamic Alteration after Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
Introduction: In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...
متن کاملCan chronotropic incompetence predict life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias in patients with stable ischemic heart disease?
Background: Chronotropic incompetence has prognostic value of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in both patients with asymptomatic and symptomatic ischemic heart disease (IHD), regardless of traditional risk factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between chronotropic response during exercise test and the development of ventricular arrhythmias. Methods: 153 pati...
