Long-term effects of perindopril on left ventricular structure and function in patients with stable coronary artery disease: a conventional and Doppler tissue echocardiographic pilot study.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term effects of perindopril on left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic function in patients with stable coronary artery disease who had previously undergone coronary artery bypass ... Read more...

Association of the parameters derived from the relation between RR intervals and left ventricle performance with a history of heart failure in patients with atrial fibrillation.

29 Sep 2009 Parameters derived from the relation between RR intervals and left ventricular (LV) performance in atrial fibrillation (AF) have been useful to evaluate systolic LV function. This study investigated the association of these parameters with a history ... Read more...

Effect of transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation on short-term right ventricular function as determined by two-dimensional speckle tracking strain and strain rate imaging.

13 Sep 2009 Transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (PVI) is an emerging therapy for right ventricular (RV) outflow dysfunction in congenital heart disease. We investigated, for the first time in children after surgery for congenital heart disease, the ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Echocardiography, Doppler, Pulsed'

Definition: Echocardiography applying the Doppler effect, with velocity detection combined with range discrimination. Short bursts of ultrasound are transmitted at regular intervals and the echoes are demodulated as they return.
