Abstract Purpose of Review The right ventricle (RV) has a complex geometry and physiology
which is distinct from the left. RV dysfunction and failure can be the aftermath of volume …

Right ventricular (RV) function is a powerful prognostic factor in congestive heart failure and
pulmonary hypertension, but assessing RV function is a challenge because of the right …

The symptomatic and prognostic relevance of the right ventricle in a myriad of conditions,
including pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), left heart failure, and after implantation of …

Right ventricular function plays an important role in determining cardiac symptoms and
exercise capacity in chronic heart failure. It is known that right ventricle has complex …

Symptoms of right ventricular failure include dyspnea, a reduction in exercise capacity, and
fluid retention. Right ventricular (dys) function strongly influences functional state and …

The importance of right ventricular (RV) function in the clinical management of patients with
cardiopulmonary disorders is now well recognized. However, due to both its shape and …

Lung diseases are amongst the main healthcare issues in the general population, having a
high burden of morbidity and mortality. The cardiovascular system has a key role in patients …

Right ventricular (RV) failure is associated with poor outcomes in pulmonary hypertension
(PH). We sought to phenotype the RV in PH patients with compensated and decompensated …

In pulmonary hypertension and other conditions, such as acute respiratory distress
syndrome and left heart failure, right ventricular dysfunction is a prognostic determinant …

Right ventricular function is a major determinant of symptomatology and prognosis in severe
pulmonary hypertension. The diagnosis of right heart failure rests on a clinical approach with …
