Increases in cardiac troponin indicative of myocardial injury are common in patients with
coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) and are associated with adverse outcomes such as …

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) can occur from increased myocardial oxygen demand
and/or reduced supply in the absence of acute atherothrombotic plaque disruption; a …

Objectives: To describe, with an emphasis on clinical applications, what is known about the
pathophysiology, management, and implications of septic cardiomyopathy in the adult ICU …

The onset of cardiomyopathy is a common feature in sepsis, with relevant effects on its
pathophysiology and clinical care. Septic cardiomyopathy is characterized by reduced left …

Background Sepsis is a common condition encountered by emergency and critical care
physicians, with significant costs, both economic and human. Myocardial dysfunction in …

Background Postoperative myocardial injury occurs frequently after noncardiac surgery and
is strongly associated with mortality. Intraoperative hypotension (IOH) is hypothesized to be …

Background Myocardial dysfunction may contribute to the haemodynamic instability which
accompanies sepsis, and may result in circulatory failure. There is no association between …

Background Sepsis is a frequently lethal state, commonly associated with left ventricular
(LV) dysfunction. Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction in sepsis is less well understood …

Background Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction is associated with poor outcomes, but
traditional measurements of systolic function such as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) …

Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host
response to infection. Myocardial dysfunction, often termed sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy …
