Cardiac systolic and diastolic function during whole body heat stress.
During a whole body heat stress, stroke volume is either maintained or slightly elevated despite reduced ventricular filling pressures and central blood volume, suggestive of improved cardiac diastolic and/or systolic function. Heat stress improves cardiac systolic and diastolic function in patients with congestive heart failure, although it remains unknown whether similar responses occur in he...
متن کاملAssessment of fetal cardiac function using tissue Doppler techniques.
OBJECTIVE Tissue Doppler echocardiography is being increasingly used in fetal medicine as a clinical and research tool. The objective of this study was to review the current status of tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) techniques applied to the fetus. METHODS Fetal cardiac function was evaluated using spectral and color TDI modes in normal fetuses and in several clinical conditions. RESULTS Annul...
متن کاملNon-invasive estimation of cardiac wall stress by using tissue doppler-echocardiography ultrasound images: People with coronary artery stenosis
In this study, a method for non-invasive estimation of stress on the heart wall in the diastole phase is presented using ultrasound echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging. The aim of this study was to evaluate the stress on the heart wall as a pre-diagnosis to identify people with coronary artery stenosis. 29 patients with stenosis of more than 70%, 30 patients with stenosis of 50 to 7...
متن کاملTissue Doppler systolic velocity change during dobutamine stress echocardiography predicts contractile reserve and exercise tolerance in patients with heart failure.
AIMS Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) is widely used to evaluate myocardial contractile reserve in patients with heart failure (HF). The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between the tissue Doppler (TD) mitral annulus systolic velocity (Sm) change during DSE, contractile reserve, and aerobic exercise capacity in HF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS Sixty-four HF patients (ag...
متن کاملTissue Doppler Imaging versus Conventional Echocardiography in Evaluation of Cardiac Functions in Diabetes Mellitus
Background: Conventional echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging have been highlighted to diagnose diastolic and systolic heart dysfunction. We aimed to compare tissue Doppler imaging with conventional echocardiography to diagnose heart dysfunctions in diabetes mellitus type 1 (DMT1) patients. <s...
