Determination of the Effects of Digoxin on the Right Ventricular Function in Patients Undergoing Pneumonectomy
Introduction: Pneumonectomy is the standard treatment of lung cancer, even though patients should undergo several evaluations before surgery; deterioration of cardiopulmonary function after pulmonary resection is inevitable. We have evaluated the effects of digoxin on the improvement of right ventricular function and prevention of probable complications after lung resection surgery. Materials a...
متن کاملDescribing right ventricular function.
In pulmonary hypertension and other conditions, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome and left heart failure, right ventricular dysfunction is a prognostic determinant. Therefore, functional parameters pertaining to the right heart alone, i.e. independent of its loading conditions, should be used to quantify right ventricular disease progression and the results of treatment. Two methods t...
متن کاملThe ventricular septum: the lion of right ventricular function, and its impact on right ventricular restoration.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the structure-function relationships of the right ventricle (RV) and septum and determine if the helical ventricular band model would define fiber orientation for maximal force response. Implications were made for right ventricular function. METHODS The right ventricular free wall and biventricular septum were studied by inserting sonomicrometer crystals at different ang...

متن کاملAssessment of right ventricular function.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To emphasize the importance and clinical implications of right ventricular function assessment in many situations encountered by intensivists and to explain in practical terms how to perform such an assessment at the bedside. RECENT FINDINGS Assessment of right ventricular function requires a full understanding of the physiology of the right ventricle. The right ventricle, u...
