Left ventricle (LV), right ventricular (RV) structural and functional changes occurs in
advanced heart failure (HF). Assessment of RV function is important as it has prognostic …

The right ventricle (RV) was neglected for a long time and has only recently gained attention.
RV systolic function important role is now recognized. It is considered a predictor of outcome …

Right ventricular (RV) function is a major determinant of prognosis and adverse outcomes in
patients with heart failure (HF). It is largely unknown if HF with mildly reduced ejection …

Background: Right ventricular (RV) systolic function has been recognized as a prognostic
factor in endstage heart failure (HF) patients and in the present study we evaluated the effect …

RV dilation is defined as RV end-diastolic dimension at the base> 42 mm. RVH is defined as
RV free wall thickness> 5 mm. Ellipses indicate that the end point or value of interest was not …

Background—The prevalence and clinical significance of right ventricular (RV) systolic
dysfunction (RVD) in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are …

The evaluation of left ventricular systolic function is one of the most common reasons for
referral for a non-invasive cardiac imaging study. In addition to its diagnostic and prognostic …

Why do we need another heart failure (HF) book in the context of currently abundant
literature on the subject? At present, HF prevalence is still high, while its morbidity and …

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction In patients
with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), the presence of coexistent right …

Background: Hypokinetic non-dilated cardiomyopathy (HNDC) is a subgroup of dilated
cardiomyopathy (DCM) spectrum, known by left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction despite …
