Prospective evaluation of circumferential and longitudinal strain in asymptomatic children with dual ventricles who underwent single ventricle repair: comparison to single LV, single RV and normal hearts
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Rarely, patients with normally sized RV and LV will undergo total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) due to the complexity of their intracardiac anatomy giving them a dual ventricle (DV) for a single cardiac output. The ventricular function in this unique physiology compared to SRV, SLV and normal hearts remains poorly understood, with few studies performed. In this study, we perform a comprehensive comparison of global and regional strain in both the circumferential (εcc) and longitudinal (εL) dimensions to conventional SV hearts and normal hearts.

Prospective comparison of circumferential and longitudinal strain in asymptomatic children with single left ventricle, single right ventricle and normal hearts
Background Ventricular dysfunction in patients with a single right ventricle (SRV) or a single left ventricle (SLV) is a known risk factor for morbidity and mortality. However, the differences in SRV and SLV function remain poorly understood, with only a few studies performed1-3. In this study, we measure the strain using cardiac MRI and perform comprehensive comparison of the global and region...
متن کاملVentricular coupling in single ventricle patients: a MRI study of cardiac biomechanics
Background Ventricular dysfunction in patients with a single right ventricle (SRV) or a single left ventricle (SLV) is a known risk factor for morbidity and mortality. In normal hearts, LV and RV augment each other, while this is not possible in single ventricle (SV) patients. Ventricular-ventricular relationship in SV patients remain poorly understood, with only a few studies performed [1-3]. ...
متن کاملEvaluation of strain and strain rate parameters using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography in patients with coronary artery disease (Research Article)
The study aimed was to measure left ventricular (LV) strain using speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) for assessment of LV function. Eighty-two subjects (mean age 57±9 years) with suspected chest pain underwent two-dimensional (2D)-echocardiography before coronary angiography. Conventional echocardiographic parameters were used for the assessment of LV function. Longitudinal strain and its ...
متن کاملRight and left ventricular wall deformation patterns in normal and left heart hypoplasia chick embryos.
The vertebrate embryonic ventricle transforms from a smooth-walled single tube to trabeculated right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) chambers during cardiovascular morphogenesis. We hypothesized that ventricular contraction patterns change from globally isotropic to chamber-specific anisotropic patterns during normal morphogenesis and that these deformation patterns are influenced by...
متن کاملComparison of myocardial rotation and torsion in asymptomatic children with single RV, single LV and normal hearts
Background Abnormal myocardial rotation and torsion have been investigated earlier as markers of ventricular failure1-2. However, there are no previous studies on global or regional torsion in functional single ventricle (SV) or the contribution of torsion to biomechanical differences between single RV (SRV) and single LV (SLV) hearts. Additionally, regional variations in rotation between the v...
