stress-induced cardiomyopathy or takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a recently increasing diagnosed disease manifested by transient apical or mid left ventricular dilation and dysfunction. this sign is similar to acute myocardial infarction but without significant coronary artery stenosis. there are important and essential differences between takotsubo cardiomyopathy and acute myocardial infarction in...
OBJECTIVES We sought to evaluate the effect of therapy with intravenous immune globulin on recovery of left ventricular function in women presenting with peripartum cardiomyopathy. BACKGROUND Peripartum cardiomyopathy is a rare complication of pregnancy that results in significant morbidity and mortality in women of childbearing age. Intravenous immune globulin has been reported to improve le...
Ficuax 1. Two-dimensional echocardiogram stop frame images are shown above and accompanying schematics below. Left panel demonstrates an apical image with four heart chambers. Middle panel shows cloud of echoes from peripheral injection of normal saline solution demonstrating simultaneous appearance of echoes in all four chambers. A similar injection postoperatively demonstrates echoes in right...
Left ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic volume, stroke volume, and ejection fraction were determined by biplane angiocardiography and echocardiography in 27 patients suspected of having heart disease. Angiographic volumes were calculated by the area-length method and echocardiographic volumes, from the left ventricular dimension of the echograms. The angiographic minor diameter and the ...
OBJECTIVE The prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction depends on multiple features that can demonstrate myocardial injury degree (such as serum markers of cardiac necrosis), and also on adaptive mechanisms relative to the acute event. The aim of the study was to assess the relation between biochemical and echocardiographic findings from three-dimensional echocardiographic (3D Ech...
Cross-sectional echocardiography is a new noninvasive technique for imaging the heart. We developed a method for using mechanical cross-sectional echocardiograms (sector scans) to determine left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction. Using left ventricular cineangiography as a standard, sector scan ejection fraction correlated better (r = 0.93) than M-mode echocardiography by any of three e...
Aims: Evidence-based guidelines for heart failure management depend mainly on current left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, fewer studies have examined the impact of prior LVEF. Patients may enter with midrange (HFmrEF) category when preserved (HFpEF) deteriorates or reduced (HFrEF) improves. In this study, we association between change in LVEF and adverse outcomes. Methods: HFmrE...
AIMS To assess whether contractile reserve during dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) can predict left ventricular functional recovery in patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy and to assess myocardial fibrosis by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in these patients. METHODS Nine patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy were enrolled. All patients underwent DSE and were followed for six mo...
To determine the possible relationship between left ventricular dilatation and heart rate changes provoked by the Valsalva maneuver (Valsalva ratio), we studied 9 patients with isolated chronic aortic insufficiency. Left ventricular systolic function was assessed by two-dimensional echocardiography and cardiac catheterization. All patients were asymptomatic (functional class I of the New York H...
